Memories and Condolences
for William Davulis

Not sure what to say?

While I never had the pleasure of knowing Dominic, I did know Will for many years. He was a good man with a kind heart who always had time for others. I remember how well he spoke of the good things he saw in others - he never had a bad thing to say about anyone. I was completely shocked to find out he passed all those years ago. Knowing he is now with his loved brother in heaven brings me joy, although the world is a lesser place without them. While the passing happened long ago, still a decade later I'm thinking fondly of his memory.

I graduated with Will from Christendom, and he was a friend of mine, one whom I enjoyed talking with throughout the years at college. I was priveleged to spend a semester with Will in Rome, and since then we became closer friends. I am deeply saddened by Will's sudden death, for Will was a good man, but I continue to pray for Will and Dominic's souls.

Requiescant in pace.

May god bless you all. I do not know any persons in your family, however i was touched by the story of your son's.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Davulis and family:



I was a friend of Will's from Christendom, class of '05. I didn't know Will as well as I should have, but the little bit that I knew him, I knew there was more to him than what met the eye. Towards the end of our career together as students, we got to know each other better.



I'd like to express my deepest condolences on the loss of Will and Dominic. Words cannot express my sorrow for you and your family at this time, but please know that I have prayed and will continue to pray for all of you, most especially for the dearly departed, and their speedy entry to heaven. I have also recently suffered a loss -- it cannot compare to yours, but I know, in a small way, what you are going though at this time. Please know that I will always keep Will and Dominic in my prayers, and that I will also pray for your reunion at the end of times.



Keep the Faith, and God Bless!

There was a time when William was like an older brother to me. I know this time was long ago and we've lost touch, but I feel this loss as if he were still that brotherly friend.



I'm thinking of you all so very much.

I am at a loss for words. However, unfortunately I only had the pleasure of know William as a co-worker for the short time he was at DOE. I am sure with time we would have become good friends. He was very professional and with a heart of GOLD. He made sure that no matter who you were that everyone got the same level of professional assistance and a smile with any computer issues. He will be greatly missed but I know that he and his bother are together in a better place.

Will, you are going to be greatly missed. You were just starting to break out of your shell and really open up to life and living. It is a shame it had to end so quickly, so unexpectedly. I hope to think you are in a better place watching over the rest of us and as much as we will have you and your family in our prayers I hope you will be the newest guardian Angel watching over all of us!

August 14, 2006

I unfortunately did not know either of your sons. I am a graduate from Christendom college and have been praying for both of them since the day I heard the news. Thank God for the time you all enjoyed their presence here on earth. The best to you and yours

You are not alone.

Please accept my deepest sympathies on the loss of your oldest son, William. I met William in 1994 when he won 1st place in the Safe Time Decal Poster Contest. This decal is still on display on the front doors of many homes in South Boston. William used art to express ideas with symbolism & spirituality far beyond his years. It was a privilege to have had the experience of working with such a warm, wonderful, talented young man.

August 12, 2006

Although brief, I will always be grateful for the time we had to talk not so long ago at your parents' house, and regret the opportunities I missed to do that more often. I will try to remain hopeful that someday, somehow we'll have the chance again.
