It was always a great sight to see Bill at the Senior center. He always joked around, laughed a lot and enjoyed every minute of it. When I had my daughter he talked about how many great grandchildren he had and how he loved spending time with his family! I am so sorry for your loss and my thoughts and prayers are being sent from my family to yours.
