I'm 51 years old and Bill Bonds was there for me my whole life, no matter what was going on in Detroit, Bill would come on the television and tell us what was happening and you just knew he was like some sort of protective measure put in place. I have nothing but respect and reverence for Mr Bonds and my heart goes out to his family and friends. Thank you Bill, see you on the other side.

"Hard-working news department." That pretty much doesn't exist anymore. RIP Bill. Thanks for your journalistic excellence.

News is in badly need of folks like Bill Bonds, simply for the fact he doesn't do & never did mainstream media.... And for the record: I woulda paid tickets & went 2 the streetfight 🏆

I loved Bill Bonds and watched WXYZ all the time! RIP Billy, you’re missed! ❤

Class act and Detroit legend
