Anita, I'm so, so sorry to hear about William. My brother just told me today. I wish I had heard in time to be there at the funeral. After all he had done for me, I should have been there. If there is anything I can do, let me know. He should still have my number somewhere or Tom can get in touch with me. You are in our prayers.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. William was such a sweet man that always had a joke to tell to make you smile. I know he will be missed by all. There will be a empty space when the choir sings at Cedar Bluff.

What a terrible loss for those of us who loved and admired William so much; but what a gain for our heavenly Father who has just received, with open arms, his precious child! The heavenly choir will now be so much richer with his beautiful voice. Aneita, Gina, and Pat, we love you so and are here for you.

We love you.
