Aunt Margie, Candy, Charlie, Mary Jane & Pat I will always remember Billy, and the times he came for the summers on the hill at grandma and grandpa's and didn't want to go home. One memory was grandpa giving him a persimmon to taste and Billy told him that he must have a horrible taster, after he could talk. Memories are all we have of those who have gone on, but they keep them with us always. I'm sure Mom, Aunt Faye, Uncles Bobbie, Gene and you dad along with many others were there to greet Billy. Sending love to you and your families. Jeanne and Darrel Rithcie

My brother is now in the arms of the angels. He is in comfort with them. Now I have another angel looking over me. At night when I look at the stars above I know he is one of them shining down on me. I love you big brother, you will always be in my heart.

My Dear Cousin Margie and Family,
We just read the tributes to your son Bill and they touched our hearts. He sounds like a loving son and a wonderful man. We are sorry, so sorry, that we never met him and knew his goodness. (That's what happens when we live so far away from the Island and my relatives.) It is nice to know he was so loved by so many. And now, sweet cousin, we send our sympathy to you, and your family along with our love and condolences.

Aunt Margie and the Luikart Family...I was sorry to hear about Billy's passing. I am glad he had many happy years upstate with Pat. He loved it up there. I have many happy memories of my childhood with him. What a special man he was and many will miss him. Love Cousin Jean

It's always hard to lose a loved one, especially for a man who gives happiness and joy to everyone he greets. I will miss my Uncle Manzi. When I was growing up I couldn't wait to go visit him and Pat in upstate NY, to enjoy the country life. I have so many memories of going to his cabin/house where my family and I would ride four wheelers, hike in the woods, watch shooting stars, listen to the wolf's howl on Manzi's back porch. My sister and I would play with his pup and turkey, Henryana. Those are the few out of the many memories I have of my Uncle Manzi. I'm so Happy I got to hug him one last time this past Christmas. What a big hearted bear he was. I will miss him dearly. xoxo

Aunt Margie and entire Luikart family, I am sorry about "Big Bill" passing. As a child I always looked forward to the times he would come and visit us in Ohio. He was a true Luikart man, kind, loving and true. He will be missed by all of my family.

Although we can't be with you while during this difficult time, you're in our thoughts from afar. "Big Bill" will always have a special place in our hearts. He was a true "gentle giant" and there was nothing like his hugs... He is making the journey to Heaven with Aunt Faye who loved him dearly. Prayers and love from Ohio

RIP my big brother Bill; nicknamed
"Manzi" by his nieces Nicole and Rachel Luikart. He was a gentle giant of a man with a big heart and kind soul. Like our father he could build and fix anything. A country boy at heart. He cherished his parternal roots and relatives from Sardis, Ohio; who were farmers.He loved his handbuilt cabin in the woods upstate. I will never forget all the wonderful and fun times.He had a special sense of humor which we call"Luikanisms" one word funny sayings.We will never forget and will miss him dearly.
