a second edition, 1988, of “The Psychology of Politics,” and the book he edited, “Strength and Weakness: The Authoritarian Personality Today, 1993.” He married Barbara Wilson McCleave in 1991 and they moved to Prospect Harbor in 1995, where he had indulged his love of sailing. Bill enjoyed one season as a stern man on a lobster boat in Corea. Bill and Barbara shared many travels, especially to Latin America and Europe. He had been involved in local politics, the Gouldsboro Budget Committee and Planning Board. He was chairman of Schoodic Futures, a community development group, where he conceived and put into motion the organization of Friends of Schoodic, now part of Friends of Acadia. He had been on the Board of the Washington Hancock Community Agency for a number of years and was active in many other organizations and projects. Bill was a lifetime learner, insatiably curious, well read and always ready for new experiences and projects. He liked to spend time in his darkroom, as he was an avid black and white photographer. Bill was a quiet, thoughtful man of few words, delivered in a soft, melodious voice. He reciprocated the friendship and respect of his many friends in Gouldsboro and beyond. The family is grateful for the support and caring of friends and caregivers who have helped throughout the last two months. Special thanks to the nurses and home health aides from Hancock Home Health Care and Hospice and the volunteer from Hospice of Hancock County.
