Bill\u2019s unbridled energy, principles and compassion were only part of his ability to create change.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe was above all an extraordinary communicator, speaking truth to power and altering international landscapes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the words of his daughter Lily, \u201cHe always listened: he cultivated all of his life like he cultivated his garden.
