I remember Bill as a loving and supportive friend to my mother (Ruth).... picnics, holiday togethers with his children and my family. He was a great cook, even teaching me how to bake fish! I have fond memories of his attending my college graduation and other celebrations. He lived life to the fullest, was an encourager and support for my family's endeavors, my daughters, Patti and Jeanine. We can't be gratefull enough for all he did for my mother in her later years. God Bless You, Bill
