Sad news on cfr homepage...

[w0rd]

For those of you who know Bill DiSorbo, you probably know that he is fighting a life threatening disease. He is at home, with his family and Hospice taking care of him. He would appreciate lots of cards. Let's show Bill how much we care for him by flooding him with cards. He still has his sense of humor and would appreciate hearing from us all.
Send cards to: Bill DiSorbo, 551 S. Brevard, #307, Cocoa Beach FL 32931
Bill is a great guy. I first met him at a race at Valencia CC in April 2003. He's the type of person that would go out of his way to help anyone.

I'm at a loss for words, I've known Bill through CFR autocrossing for a couple of years now, but I had no idea he was sick. Bill really is one of the nicer people you could meet in life. Here's hopin' for some more good times with our friend Bill.

I met Bill a few years ago at an Evolution school. He is a very nice guy. I work in the Hospice community, so I know what he is going through. Unfortunately his disease must be terminal to be in Hospice. I hope his last days are spent in comfort and dignity.

One of the friendliest guy I've ever met! He's also one of the coolest cuz he got himself a cool car! We are praying for you Bill and hope we continue to see you at the events!

Definately sad news. He and I were the only two autocrossing Foci at the Palm Bay events back in the day. Real nice guy. :(

From the CFRSolo2 home page... Bill has left us. :-(

--------------------------------------------------------------

We want to let everyone know that Bill DiSorbo passed away on Sunday September 18, 2005 at home. The following is a note that we received from his son Dave.

My father passed away last night after fighting that uphill battle with cancer. We want to thank you and the rest of the CFR SCCA community for everything the last few months.



The visits the last two weeks brightened his day where it was difficult for him to find energy. All the cards and calls showed the support and compassion that only a tight group of friends could give. And the thoughts and prayers, I would like to think, were well received. Finally, the plaque that you presented him was incredible and will be cherished in one of six living rooms across the country.



It would be nice for us, his family, if you could remember Bill for his humorous demeanor, his passion for racing, and his generosity (what other M-Coupe had been driven by half of Florida?). I’m sure that would mean a lot to him as well.



We will be holding a memorial service Thursday. I will send out the information after we make the arrangements.



Thanks again!

Dave
