To Bill's Family,

Sorry to learn of Bill's passing. Bill was a 1966 Prouty classmate of ours. Somehow the hour glass of time seems to standstill for highschool friends.

You are in our thoughts and prayers,

Paul and Lucinda (Wloch) Guerin

Dear Mary and Nikki ~ We're so very sorry to hear of Bill's passing. All are sure to remember that smile and laughter; it made you just have to join in right along. I like to think he's boppin' to "Speedo" and singing along to the "Duke of Earl" and "In the Still of the Night". Yes, Bill will live in many hearts as they sit and remember and smile. Go Red Sox! May God Bless you with peace and courage~ Janet, Cassie, JJ and Billy
