Not sure what to say?

What a gift you were to our world and the world is a better place for having known you and the special touch and friendship you gave to all of us that you came in contact with throughout your life. We miss your presence in our community but know that you are with your Lord and Savior in Heaven.
Blessings to your family here on earth.
Rich and Susan Dineen

Have thought many times about Billy over this past year. Mixed emotions of joy and sadness, but mostly joy. Rest in peace my dear friend; you continue to inspire those you left in this world.

We will miss him so much (l to r Meg Word Sims, Jenny Kemp, Kristie Rhodenbaugh Bailey, Kim Peters Fairley)

So sorry to hear. A wonderful person will be missed. You are in my prayers.

I wish I could be what was to so many people.

Dear Keating family,
I served on the board while Bill was the President of the St. X athletic board in 2000 and 2001. Under Bill's leadership, our board began the efforts to bring about the new football, track and soccer facilities. His friendly, calm leadership style enabled us all to achieve more together. Truly, "a man for others!" Kathy and my prayers go out to all of you.
