I tried to get Bill down to South Carolina for our annual SC Book
Festival a few years back. Sorry that did not work out to introduce to him to many new readers (while he chased redfish again in the SC Lowcountry!). But, his works will endure, in both the outdoors and mystery genres, including the Stoney Calhoun stories that combined both. And I am sure his teaching and mentoring will help produce a new generation of writers, especially those that appreciate his approach of 'writing invisibly'.
I know that Norm Ziegler and I will both think of him whenever we land our next snook on Sanibel Island.

I just checked the website to see when Mr. Tapply's next book would be out and learned of his passing. I have been reading his books for many years and feel like I have lost a very good friend. He sent me signed bookmarks about 5 years ago when I wrote to him. I will treasure them and I will miss both Bill Tapply and Brady Coyne. My sympathies to his family.

I just put in an order for a copy of Dark Tiger and thought I'd check the site for news of a Brady Coyne novel. The news of Mr. Tapply's passing was a shock.

When you've read someone's work for twenty-something years, you begin to feel like you know them

Today it feels like I have lost a friend.

My sincere condolences to the Tapply family and friends

Godspeed, Bill. I'm sorry you're no longer waking up on the right side of the grass. Your friendship and your mentoring meant everything to me. When/if my book is published, it will be dedicated to you, my good friend.

Along with so many others, I was shocked to read the website and learn of Bill's passing. I've recently moved to Mass. and was hoping to have him sign my Brady Coyne books. His death, especially on top of Phil Craig's, is such a great loss. My prayers go to all the family.
