<span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">It is with profound sadness and unmeasurable grief that we share the unfathomable news that Dr. Bill Hart-Davidson has passed away. When he wrapped up his 12-year term on our Executive Committee in 2018, we
gifted him an ATTW cycling jersey (thanks to Jim Ridolfo for the suggestion). Though Bill could have easily pedaled away from any additional ATTW labor, we asked him to stay on and serve as Secretary. Without hesitation, he happily agreed. When that term was
up, we asked him to serve in our inaugural position of ATTW Historian; again, he happily accepted. Bill always generously stepped up and genuinely showed up with humility, intelligence, grace, and humanity. The holes he leaves in our hearts and organization--and
the discipline--are infinite. We love, appreciate, and miss you, BHD! And our hearts and deepest sympathies go out to Leslie and Lily Hart-Davidson, and the rest of his family and friends.</span></div>
