William “Bill” Trot- man passed on Easter Sun- day, April 12, 2020, in a local hospital after a brief illness.
Trotman is known in the community as the founder of the Financial Seminars intro- duced by the Tampa Bay Black Heritage Festival.
Initially, Trotman, a Tampa native, hosted semi- nars leading into the actual weekend of the Music Festi- val. The seminars became so popular that he began hosting them monthly with different financial analysts as guests, with the focus bring on East Tampa.

His financial industry ex- perience includes such com- panies as: Chase Manhattan Bank, American Income Life, Amerilife, Bank of America, Washington Mutual, JPMor- gan Chase and now TD Bank.
He said during an earlier interview, “My goals are to service my clients with the highest level of customer service, help them build their business through referrals and needed banking prod- ucts. I thrive on establishing business relationships through honesty and trust. This is the best way to build lasting business relationships and the best way to receive re- ferral-based business as well.”

The city of Tampa tweeted from its page Mon- day, “Sorry @TomBrady! Our @tampaparksrec team

can’t wait to welcome you and our entire community back with even bigger smiles — until then, stay safe and stay home as much as you can to help flatten the curve.”
Brady recently moved his family into a furnished mansion he’s renting from former New York Yankees star Derek Jeter in Tampa.
