Not sure what to say?

Brother you and I were the youngest in our family and we had a very special relationship. I will miss you so much. Every day will be expecting the phone to ring so we can have our talk. I love you with all my heart and soul. It want be long that I will join you and our family in heaven.

Celebrate the memories.

I love you Papa so much. I wish we had been able to spend more time together. I love you and will see you in heaven sooner than you know.

Papa Bill was the funniest, smartest, hard working man I’ve ever met. He called every birthday to sing me happy birthday and NEVER missed one. His last birthday he sung was to my daughter, his great-great-granddaughter. And I will forever be grateful for that. Rest easy papa, thank you for all the laughs and unconditional love. Kiss Nana for me.

BILL WAS LOVED SO MUCH AND WILL BE MISSED. NEVER AGAIN WILL WE HEAR HIM SING HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US ON OUR BIRTHDAY. WE HAD SO MANY MEMORIES OF BOWLING TOGETHER ALL THE YEARS UNTIL HE RETIRED FROM BOWLING, THE EXTRA LARGE SUNDAE SERVED IN RENO DURING ONE OF OUR MANY TRIPS. WE LOVE YOU AND WILL MISS YOU "BIG BROTHER". MELISSA, ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU WERE THE BRIGHT LIGHT IN HIS LIFE, HE LOVED YOU VERY MUCH.

Melissa I am so very sorry for your loss.
