The family of Bill Sayre has my deepest sympathies. It was an honor to be able to work with Bill at WOWK TV for a year as a WOWK salesman. He was always very nice and kind and willing to help create ads for our clients. Later as a client of WOWK, Bill was invaluable in helping me with some very creative solutions to the advertising I wanted to create at WOWK. I always remember how much Bill enjoyed his work. He especially enjoyed creating the Christmas sets for the High School Glee Clubs that performed at Christmas. Bill was tremendously talented and for years he designed and built the news sets for WOWK. He never seemed rushed or on edge. He just went about his job in a very confident yet humble manner. Yes, it was truly a privilege to have known and worked with Bill.
