Uncle Bill,
You were the kindest man I have ever known, always everyones biggest supporter and cheerleader. You were a second father to me and a second grandfather to my children. Will miss your kind loving spirit every day.

April 11, 2013

Uncle Bill, you were much more to me than an uncle and godfather. We had a very close, special relationship no one else will ever understand or touch. Your sweet, loving spirit will be with me forever. To your dying day you said I would always be your Number One, as you called me my whole life. Rest in peace. Love, Barb (Number One)
