It was our pleasure to have known Bill. We met him as a client of our Animal Hospital, but came to know him as a kind and caring individual. His generosity towards his cats and other homeless animals was heartwarming. He was the kind of person who always expressed his gratitude for whatever he felt was a kindness. We will miss his warmth and friendship tremendously.
