Bill was a brother and we had many good times and adventures. Such as snicking in a pond that was full of bass. Him shooting at a ringneck for or five times until the ringneck got tired of him and his reloads. Him coming through the woods yelling hootie-hoot. These were just a few things.

Aunt Nancy, and my cousins I was deeply saddened to hear of Uncle Bill passing away so sudden, I told my Dad and he did realize that his brother Bill had gone to be with our Lord.
Dad’s Alzheimer’s is now very progressed, he still know me, but has many medical problems.
Our prayers are with you all at this time.

Nancy, My sincere condolence to you and your family, I've thought of Bill many times through the years. We had some memorable times while in High School, they always brought a smile to my face and will continue to do so.

Man, Bill....I was just in the process of "looking you up," me and Dave Vorozilchak wanted to come see you over Thanksgiving! I have thought of you often, over the years, always with fond memories. For Charlotte, Linda, your wife and children, here's a short one about me and Bill: When we were about 10 or 12, I had a BB gun. Bill and I were up along the railroad tracks, maybe behind Donnelly's. I shot a robin, and knew it was wrong and I would get in trouble. We buried the robin along the tracks, under a covering of cinders. Later that day, Bill came to my house with the dead robin in a white handkerchief, to show to my Mother and Sisters, I assume out of guilt. I NEVER forgot Bill, just on that note! ALL of you....Bill was a great guy and my deepest sympathies to you.
