The garden Bill built was eye candy. Casey and I could gaze for a long while as we took in the zinnias, snapdragons, dahlias and myriad other plants he nurtured. He's already busy tending Heaven's gardens, I'm sure. May the fond memories replace the pain soon.

Dear Judy and family,

Please accept my sincere condolences and sympathy during this time of loss. I always thought highly of Bill and very much enjoyed his company when we were together. Chrissy and I were able to attend the service Sunday and felt uplifting inspiration, meaning, and tribute to a "great" guy. Our prayers and thoughts are for the peace that passes all understanding to be w/ you and family during this time of loss. Sincerely, Keene Reese

Judy,

We wanted you to know that we are all thinking of you and your extended family at this time. We all loved Bill and will always remember the fun Prudential parties that we shared together with you and Bill. Arthur (Dad) and Bill always seemed to find time to joke around about things...usually inappropriate, but it always seemed to add to the excitement of the evening. The ceremony on Sunday was more than beautiful. It was a tribute to your husband Bill...a warm, funny and dedicated man that will be missed by many people but not ever forgotten. Please tell Ben and Ashley that we are thinking of them too.Ashley's words on Sunday were so sincere and heartfelt.We are all sorry for your loss and we will be here to help you when you need us.

I have only known Bill for a short while. We met through some mutual friends from the Tuesday night meetings. Bill was a wonderful friend whose care and compassion for others was demonstrated through his daily journey through this life. He touched many lives and will be missed by all who knew him. May God comfort you all now and in the weeks ahead.

Dear Judy and family,

I am deeply saddened to hear of Bill's passing. We have so much enjoyed being your neighbor...from Bill's serving on the neighborhood board to his generosity in sharing plants from his garden with us. He was a tremendous gardener and loved to share his knowledge and seedlings. As a result, Bill's influence and beauty will be in our garden for years as I'm sure it will be in others.

God bless,

Peggy and Mike Gardner
