He was behind the magnificent growth of the company. He had been with the company from good and bad times. Bill was an important figure for Apple and he was known to be the leader of the company.
He was fondly known as coach as he had contributed in a lot many ways and also helped the company with a lot of projects, He was seen as an inspirational figure in the company who was excited as well as crazy for marking the mile stone of the success of the company. Bill, “The Coach” passed away at 75 after his long battle with Cancer. After Steve jobs, this is the second personal as well as professional loss of the company.
Bill has been a mentor for many tech players in the company and has contributed in nearly all the major breakthrough projects of the company.
