From Perry Welsh:
I have many good memories of Bill and I. We were inseparable for quite a few years. I never dreamt he could die, he always seemed indestructible to me, like a big grizzly bear. He could be gentle and he could be fierce. We had a lot of adventures together all over the country, probably enough to fill a book. We drank and laughed a lot, and when we got in barroom brawls together it was lucky for me that Bill always had my back. He was the toughest, fightenest, baddest, most lovable MF’er I ever knew and loved. Rest in peace my friend, and I'll see you on the other side for a cocktail or two.
This picture of Perry was taken in our flat at 1464 La Playa, San Francisco in 1974 during the time frame that he is referring to above. Since I had learned years before that I couldn't beat up a one armed old lady, I usually stayed home when these boys went out on the town! Terry
One of the more tame and artistic photos of Perry looking good. I followed these two meteors through the night sky a couple of times and lived to tell about it. You had to be quick to stay abreast of their slapstick humor, but it was well worth it.
