It is with great sadness that we tell you about the passing of Modern Drummer Magazine's editor in chief William F. Miller. Bill left us this past December 12, after a long and noble bout with cancer. Our hearts and thoughts are with Bills entire family this Holiday Season.Bill began his career at Modern Drummer as an intern over twenty years ago, eventually rising to MDs top editorial post. A protégé of the magazines founder, Ron Spagnardi, Bill loved his work, identified himself with it, and dedicated all of his energy and effort toward it. His presence will be greatly missed. Donations can be made in his memory to the Frost School of Music, University of Miami, P.O. Box 248165, Coral Gables, Fla., 33124, or the Melanoma Research Foundation, 170 Township Line Rd.
