William Pitt has been added to the In Memoriam page

[mnhtnbb]

with the eulogy written by his Truthout co-editor.

I know many of the threads dedicated to him since his death had people hoping that would be the case.

The eulogy contains a link to the GoFundMe which is raising funds to put in trust for the benefit of his daughter, Lola. If you knew Will, you knew that Lola was the light of his life.

Rest in Peace, Will. You will be sorely missed.

6. Thank you so much, my dear mnhtnbb, for getting this done. He deserves to be there.

True, he was controversial, but he contributed to DU's members from the start.

We will never forget.
