Rest peacefully Bill in the presence of angels. You´ve fought a hard battle and the toughest of great warriors. You will forever be etched in my heart as the kindest, most genuine men I´ve ever known and my love goes out to your family and friends. The "chili lady".

He always walked me to my car after my night shifts at Fricker´s. He would make sure I got there safe every time. I´ll always remember that.
