Thanks to uncle Bill, I, along with many others always had a great time on the fish'n trips. Big meals, big fish (except for me), Great pranks and poker games (except for me). So many great times/stories that would bring tears to your eyes and make your stomach hurt from laughing so hard. Too many to list but never will be forgotten. Just like him!
Rest In Peace
