Bill was my big brother and we shared much together but mostly I looked up to him as one would expect of a big brother. You will be missed. Go with God…

Bill will be greatly missed. I remember whenever he pulled a fun prank on someone, he had this villainous laugh, He always had everyone laughing. Bill is sitting in Heavan now drinking his favorite Woods coffee. Marilyn, your love, strength and self sacrifice is an example of what we should all strive to be like. May God comfort you in this time of sorrow. Bob, Jenny and families, May God comfort you all.
