To the Looney family and all the members of Looney & Grossman,
Through the passing of Mr. Looney, the world has lost a wonderful man, a kind man, a man who always had his hand out to help someone, a man who was mystical in his own Irish lilting way.
Enjoy your golfing in Heaven with Connie. "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal." ~ an old Irish blessing!
May God Bless all who are in grief

Dear Karen and The Looney Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you today as we all remember Bill in our own way. Hard to believe that 25 years ago I had my fisrt Sunday morning coffee with Connie and Bill in Dedham. I have always felt like part of the extended family. My deepest sympathy.

To Bill's loved ones,
It was very sad to hear that Bill has passed on, though Martha told our friend Henry Feldman that he is in a better place now, and my wife Nancy and I believe that this is true.
Bill and I became good friends sixty+ years ago, and though we did not see each other often after law school, it was always good to get together, talk things over - just as we had in college - and reflect on his thoughtful observations. In my time of greatest need, which was early in 1975, I turned to him and found his advice sound and comforting.
He was a wonderful human being, and he and Connie were a wonderful couple. While I'm not sure how it works after we pass on, I truly hope they are together again. Nancy and I are holding Bill's soul and all of you, his loved ones, in our prayers.

Dear Looney Family,
My deepest condolences on your great loss. Bill was a truly great man and it was a privilege for me to have met him through my dad. I can just see the two of them now, working on a new IRS trial strategy in Heaven! He was indeed special and will be greatly missed. God bless you at this time and always.

Dear Looney Family,
My condolences on your great loss. There is some solace in the knowledge that he is back together with his beloved Connie. I have such wonderful memories of Bill and the entire family. Bill and Connie were the happiest couple I have ever known. I can rember driving with them in Marathon, Florida, as they were singing back and forth to one another. Bill was very instrumental in the development of my legal career. Perhaps he and my father can have one more pop together in the Lechner's in the sky. God bless you all. Larry Hoch

To all the family Dorothy and I extend our deepest sympathy. Times spent with Bill since I first met him in 1949 have provided many great memories. He became a lifelong friend. We will miss him sorely. What a good guy -- what humor and intelligence!
