I have known Billy since I was born. His birthday was 3 months before mine and I always teased him about being so much older than me. We grew up together and were always friends. My kids grew up knowing him and listening to his stories.
We often met at Lee’s for meals and to chat. When my husband was at St. Francis Billy was the first person to greet him there.
It’s hard to imagine him not here.
As Shane said to me, “He is whole now”. Rest in peace sweet cousin, you will be remembered!

Bill helped my Grandparents Imogene and Wilbur Whiteley… they both enjoyed him. He was funny and a sweet flirt… I also he was a welcome member of the Lee’s coffee crowd. He was a really special man to so many people. My deepest condolences to his friends and family.

Awe Bill! I am Missing You Already! I know you are sitting on Gods lap accepting your Halo and Wing, because you earned them when you were here on earth. You made so many friends ,was always kind and caring, always thinking of others. you would give your shirt on your back to another if he didn’t have one. Working on many yards riding many miles, giving your all. I Love You Cousin Bill ! Rest in Peace..
