Bill, Its been almost a year without my "crazy" buddy to guide me through some rough decisions! We bought an old Volvo, and you werent there for the first time to help, but I think you are still watching out for me and the family,in your way!! I see your about to be a Grandpa, guess you know I am one now! The last thing you sold me is still going, and it needs a little help now and then! Hope all is well in eternity, say hello to Mom for me and you should meet my Dad there too, I know you both will get along! Sure do miss your advice, as I need a lot advice sometimes, but I am comforted in the fact I have many angels looking out for me!

Hello again, Mr. Andree,
I hope you are enjoying a wonderful eternal life and all is well. I just wanted to drop by and congratulate you on becoming a Grandfather this coming Fall! Nicole misses you so much and I have told her you will speak to her through this baby's eyes. I am sure you will be honored that the baby will carry your name- Please keep both of them close to your heart and have a careful watch over them. Something tells me you are smiling right now.

My heart is broken. I just learned about the sad loss of "Little Red". He never changed. He was always excited, always enthusiastic, always a good friend.

I could never pay you back for everything you gave me, but I still use the life tools you generously shared with me everyday. I'll miss the ever present smile, the infectious laughter, but most of all, I will miss one of the very few left that I always looked up to.

Be well and try not to torment Wayne too much.

30 years ago I knocked on a door on curtiswood lane. Not only did I sell a box of steaks,I made a friend for life. Bill loved people and people loved Bill. As a sales mentor he was the best. I will always love Bill like an uncle. My love goes out to the Andree family.Keep The faith that Bill saw in others.

The best car salesman...because he cared!

Thinking of you today. My sweet little Mama has been gone for 6 years this week, and you always helped me so much to deal with my sadness over losing her. You could always tell me funny stories about her, etc...and always found a way to cheer me up! Now it's you I miss. Bill, you were a great man, and a great friend to me, and soooooo many others. You will never be forgotten!

As i have just learned of this loss my heart is broken and goes out to his family. After knowing Bill for many years, I can say he was one of the kindest men I have had the honor of knowing. Truly a professional in his industry! I never saw him without a smile on his face--he just loved life. I will miss him so much. See you on the other side my dear friend.

Bill was an old Army buddy of mine back in the 60's. We were both members of the 401st Military Police Prisoner of War (Army). I must say Bill was a person you would always looked forward to seeing, he was always "UP" on life and always had a great laugh and a big smile......Bill will be missed by many...Love to his family.

June and family.......I just learned from my brother, Park Owen, that Bill had recently gone Home to be with our Lord, and I wanted to send my condolences. Bill, you, Jimmy Gardner and I were all friends as you may remember, and I introduced him many years ago to Park when he needed a car. It had been several years since being in touch with Bill myself because I have lived out of state for many of them. However when I needed another car I of course called Bill and flatteringly he immediately remembered me and we caught up with each others families and lives. He was so proud of each of you. What a treat and what a truly nice man. I treasured his wit and his smile and he was always able to bring one to my face. I know he will be missed by so many and I'm just grateful to have known him lo these many years. Sleep well my old friend. We will all be reunited at some point in the future and I expect to see your big smile at that time! Prayers to all, and may your family trust that God's Grace and Blessings will help them through this time of sorrow.........

I had just met Bill at the end of March. He was so helpful and kind, and made finding a new car for myself and my kids a joyful experience. I lost my father several years ago, he was also in the automobile business. Bill just touched me, sharing stories about life and family. I am so incredibly sorry for your loss; I had only known him for days and can tell what an incredible man he was to all that knew and cherished him. May he rest in peace, and I wish for you all that you find comfort in your memories of this fine man. Take care and God bless.

We got the dog today dad. It wasn't quite the same victory without you here. We even made the news all the way to Asia. "Get the Dog!" We love you

So sorry to hear of Bills Passing, he was such a
good friend and ALWAYS there for me when I needed him, He said to me many times which one of us goes first I want to be at your service or you at mine. I NEVER thought he would go before me. I will miss him deeply.We shared so many great times together I could never count them all.

Bill will be missed by so many people. I worked with him at Superior Motors and then BMW of Nashville. Bill was like a big brother to me. He helped me thru a divorce down to advice on my kids, then let me know when I found the right man to marry. I just talked to Bill
a couple of months ago.He wanted me to bring my grandson down to Nashville so he could see us. I'm sorry to say, I never made it. It's a big regret now.

Andree, I love you and you will be missed. You were a GREAT friend.......

Jim Reiss

April 11, 2012

I worked with Bill for a couple years at Superior. He was always happy, always upbeat and the quintessential salesman. In a career of selling I have never met another man that loved to sell as much as Bill. I will never forget him grabbing his pen and paper and rushing out the door saying "Let's go sell a car!" My sincerest condolences to June and the family for your loss.

The news of this ripped through my heart as if Bill was a part of my family. I thought about it for a second and realized that Bill treated me and everyone else as if they were his family. Although we had drifted apart and only spoke a couple times since I moved to Knoxville in 2006, he always remained someone that I am extremely proud to have known during his time here. Bill was my favorite golf partner during my days in Nashville and I'll never forget some of the adventures we shared on the course. Rest in Peace Mr. Billy Andree.. You will surely be missed by many.

April 10, 2012

May you find comfort & peace in your memories and the love of many friends. I never considered him a "car salesman" but a friend that happened to help me with the purchase of several cars. He always had a smile to give & laughter to share. Most conversations revolved around the love of his family, UT football, pets &/or golf.

April 10, 2012

We have known Bill for many years and have had many laughs together over car deals, he always had a smile on his face. Our prayers are with his family, may he rest in peace.

My father and I both knew Bill for well over 20 years. The day I met Bill was the day my Dad surprised me with a car for college, which Bill helped him find. I remember the look of joy on Bill's face...I think he was as excited as I was! This memory defines who Bill was for me...a genuine person who was always positive, loved helping and just being around people. You will be missed by all, Bill. Godspeed to you sir!

To June, Nicole, Christi and all of Bill's family---
We are so very saddened by the sudden tragic loss of Bill. We feel so honored to have had the privilege to know him, and call him our friend. Bill had such a generous heart, and would do anything for anybody. He absolutely LOVED life and lived it to the fullest! What a great thing to say about a person! He was kind, loving, generous, a very grateful person, and a friend to all. He worked with my Dear Mother (who passed away almost 6 years ago) in the automotive industry for 35 years....was her boss for many years. He was a perfect Boss to her. Bill will be missed terribly, but I pray you will find comfort in all of your loving memories! God bless and keep you! Love to all!

Dear Mr. Andree ... I'm very sad, that I will never get to know you personally, maybe when I come to visit Prada. But I know, that someone who has such a special and wonderful daughter like Nicole, must be also a very great person. Take care of your loved ones and watch over them from heaven.
Sometime we will meet in rainbow-land :-)
