Bill & Brian,

We are so sorry to hear about Bill and we will miss him so much. I still remember the wonderful times we had when you all came to the house in Concord for cookouts. I will always remember Bill as the popcorn man. My heart goes out to you.

With Love,
Loretta

Dear Cuddys,

I have many happy memories of listening to Bill’s stories, and enjoying the camraderie on sailing trips where almost everyone but Steve was named Bill. He was a great guy, and I will miss him, as we all will.

I’m sure he has found a richly deserved peace and relief from all worldly care.

Best regards,
Bill Lawson

Mr. Cuddy,
Sir, I didn't know you but I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army during the Korean War. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

To Billy, Brian and families,
Very sorry to hear about uncle Bill. He was always one to make us laugh with a funny story. He always had a good laugh when my mother would remind him that he was my "Godfather" - he would look at me like "how Old are you now"?? As sick as he has been for so long and as sad as we are to lose him, we must remember that he's with the rest of his family now...May he Rest in Peace. Love, Mary
