You were by Best friend in high school. We had some crazy times together. I loved you and your family so much. I should have made time to see you over the years. I remember the early mornings going to work and the late nights spending spending our entire checks on frivolous stuff. I tell my kids how much you loved life and how kind you were. You'll always be wild bill with a good heart. I love you man!
