Dear family, uncle Bill made such an impact on his community and with the people who loved him and held him so dear. To cousins Jayne and Wes, you were your father’s greatest accomplishments and he was so proud of you both. He dearly loved all of his family and as you know fiercly dedicated to his sister. I know there is nothing I can say that can diminish the loss of your father but I will say that it brings me great comfort to know that your father and your aunt Sharon are holding hands again in heaven . Your dad will be dearly missed and I will never forget my uncle Bill. You have all of my love and my deepest sympathy. Cousin Melissa

My Dad and I were sadly surprised to see that Bill had passed away. We originally knew Bill from SWIRCA, and Dad went to breakfast on Saturdays with him once he stopped going to SWIRCA. May you find comfort in your memories of happier times.
