I had the great pleasure of working with Bill( Mr. Collinger) for 4 years at Marketing Associates. We had many great experiences together including a few rounds of golf. I will always remember his
smile and kind words. RIP.
I also worked with Bill several years ago and was always inspired by his dedication to sharing industry knowledge to marketers, new to the biz and veterans, throughout direct marketing associations across the country. My condolences.
