Bill Vick was a great person to know and work with. I had the pleasure of knowing him first as an Orleans County Legislator many years ago. My father introduced him to me and when I was involved in county government we became good friends. He will be missed. May his family be comforted by God's grace. God bless you all as you mourn his passing at such a young age.

Sheryl and Family,
Bill and I go way back including our Confirmation Class at Concordia where we misbehaved terribly. He and I enjoyed our status as class clowns throughout the years. He had a quick wit and displayed his intelligence readily. His excellent handwriting skills, unusual for most men, still awe me. Sheryl, when we think of Bill, we think of you both together as a team. May you find comfort from your family and good and true Kendall friends. The world was better because Bill was in it! I know he will be missed by many. We send our prayers to you and yours.
