I am so sorry to hear about Bill's passing. I have SO MANY memories from the time I have spent with 'Uncle' Bill. I am so thankful we got to meet up at Rodanthe a couple summers ago! It was so special to us all after so many years! We will always have a special connection and a love for him. He was one in a million! Bet he's hunting and fishing with my Dad and David!! Love to you all! Lynette Harlow-Stevens
