Been looking for relatives of William Gilkerson...He wrote a play in 1960-61 that I was a member of the cast in CLayton High School with Blandford Jennings. It was called "The Executioner" about a Medieval executioner who was against Capital Punishment. If there are any of his papers from that time...especially a copy of that play...I would really appreciate a copy of it. I would want to produce the play but I cannot find a copy of it anywhere. Please email me if you or a family member may have access...Thank you for any help you can give....

Dear Kerstin and family ... I was very saddened to hear of Bill's passing. He was not only a wonderful artist and author but a most amazing individual. I treasure the opportunities I had to spend time with him when I interviewed him for the local paper. A gentleman in the true sense ... he will be missed. Our prayers are with you all ... Robert

I will always treasure the memory of my time with Bill. He will forever be my favourite pirate. My thoughts and sympathy are with Kerstin and all of Bill's family at this time.
