Rita...my condolences to you and your family. I'm glad that I had an opportunity to meet Bill and your whole family this May at the wedding. It was very obvious how much his family loved him. Now Baby Wojtkowiak and your other grandchildren and great grandchildren will have a very special angel watching over them.
