Bill Eckhardt

Currently working for Strong/UR Medicine as an outpatient Pharmacist after many great years working for Wegmans. (I went from the number 2 employer in area to the number 1 !!!) . I enjoy bicycling, (rode around lake Ontario several years ago with my younger son) and have ridden in several of the highlander bike rides ( over 100 miles through the Bristol and Italy hills) I love going to Buffalo Sabres and Bills games as well following LSU team sports. Over the years I have found that I enjoy vegetable gardening but find I don't enjoy eating vegetables as much as I like growing them for others to eat. My oldest son Michael married in 2013 and we are still anxiuosly awaiting our 1st grand child.

I graduated with an Associates degree from Jamestown Community College and followed with a B.S. in Pharmacy from the University of Buffalo. I can attribute my academic success to the years of honing my euchre skills in the small and large cafeteria during study hall and lunch. To this day I still blame my poor hearing on exploding a test tube full of oxygen in chem lab while standing next to my lab partner Grant Kessler. Or could it been the multitude of rock concerts I saw in my teens and 20's!!!! I always liked the fact that if I want to reminisce about school I only had to travel to one place since I went to Listwood, Dake and IHS.
