Uncle Bill, I will miss you forever. But thank you for all the memories we shared while I was growing up. I have so many memories and stories that we shared, that I will never forget.
I love you, you were the best!

Karen and Family, my thoughts and prayers are with all of you as you travel this hard road. Bill is whole and well now, and this has to help you bear such a loss. He will be with you always and you will feel the warmth in your heart when you think of your life together. God Bless you and please take care.

Karen & Family,
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I worked with Bill at Lockwood Bros. in the early 70's and became good friends with him. We lost contact with each other when we went in different directions but I always remembered his friendship and kindness. Karen, you knew my wife Pat, who passed away in 2004, so I know exactly what you're feeling now. Again, you have my condolences. Terry

Uncle Billy, I miss you more than you know and wish you could have known. I should have told you in person & in words. I don’t know why I have such difficulty verbalizing my love for family. I have such wonderful childhood memories. I so glad that my own children have the same great memory of you and the family. I am going make it a point to visit to visit at the minimal of once a year to see my aunt, cousins, 2nd cousins, 3rd cousins and step-cousins —even if its just a long weekend ! That is my ONE only regret is that I didn’t visit more often & that I didn’t come down to see you while you were alive! I thank God, that I did see you before you pass & I know you heard me and Richard whisper in you ear. I know that you are a peace with God & with your mother & brother – even though he hurts my heart that you are not hear on earth! Love you, your niece, Anne Marie

Uncle Billy, I miss you more than you know and wish you could have known. I should have told you in person and in words. I don’t know why I have such difficulty verbalizing my love for family. I have such wonderful childhood memories of all your houses and finally the land. I so glad that my own children have the same great memory of you and the family. I am going make it a point to visit (like I should have when you were alive) to visit at the minimal of once a year to see my aunt, cousins, 2nd cousins, 3rd cousins and step cousins or whatever the relationship is called—even if its just a long weekend so I can keep better contact with everybody! That is my ONE only regret is that I didn’t visit more often and that I didn’t come down to see you while you were alive! I thank God, that I did see you before you pass and I know you heard me and Richard whisper in you ear. I know that you are a peace with God and with your mother and brother and you are no longer suffering – even though he hurts my heart that you are not hear on earth! Love your niece, Anne Marie

To all the family I am sorry for your loss.When ever Geroge and I would come to vist,hunt or work on heat and air we knew there would be a tour to be had.Sometime before we left Mule would put us in his truck for some site seeing and a history lesson.Even if it was same as before but you had to go anyway.Many go times to remember.Picking pears, pecans or peanuts out of the field.
Best wishes,Leroy
