Remembering Bill from Sams...what a guy. :) I remember he kind of intimidated me Kate, until one day you said,"what! who? Bill? HES MY DAD!" I never knew because you two were always messing with each other and you called him Bill! Anyways-you 2 were great together...cherish his life always. He was very proud of his family. Very saddened by your loss and wishing you peace.
