Dear Chuck, Pete and Wendy,
I am so sorry to hear about your Dad. I loved your parents and was in their wedding. Your Mom used to babysit Gus and me at Bonnet Shores. We sure had some fun times together. I miss them both.

Bill Wyman was a great guy. I will always have fond memories of going to see the Boston Bruins at the Garden with Bill. His passion for appreciating and enjoying life was second to none.

Dear Wyman Family, I'm so sorry about your loss. I have very fond memories of your father. I worked with him in the telephone company and I always remember how he called "His Ruthie" the Bride and that he gave her a rose every Saturday. We used to go to lunch when I worked with him on Saturdays and he would say the food was "good and good fer ya!" He was one of the best co-workers I ever had and I am so sorry to hear of his passing. May your fond memories of him make his passing easier to bear. God bless you, Bill.
Sincerely,
Ann Cavaliere
