Bill was a good person, who loved his family and friends,and who left this world a much better place because of who he was and the footprint that he left behind. I'm sorry that I wasn't able to spend time with him these last few years because of the distance and work constraints. I will always remember the good times my father and I spent with him hunting and fishing.
Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.
Bill is in Heaven now, and he will always be in our prayers.

Don't think of him as gone away
his journey's just begun,
life holds so many facets
this earth is only one.
Just think of him as resting
from the sorrows and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days and years.
Think how he must be wishing
that we could know today
how nothing but our sadness
can really pass away.
And think of him as living
in the hearts of those he touched...
for nothing loved is ever lost
and he was loved so much.
We love you all and our thoughts and prayers are with you. We are deeply sorry for your loss.
