My deepest sorrows on the loss of a super guy from our Class of 1961 at Bradley and to the family and sisters of the Carty Family. Bill will be greatly missed. He was the life of any group he was with and who embellished life to its fullest. May his dearly departed soul rest in peace in the house of the Lord this day and forever as promised by his heavenly father.
