Not sure what to say?

Bill was a very special client and friend. He never failed to greet me with a sweet compliment that would always make my day. If the world had more people like Bill, it would be a better place. He was a true gentleman. He always put his wife, Ellen on the highest pedestal which would make us ALL swoon. Heaven has gained the most precious angel.

Dear Ellen and family, Cliff And Linda Lichtenberger send our deepest condolences. What an incredible man in many ways! Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

Dear Ellen and Family,
Edgar and Harriette Mandeville send our condolences and prayers for you at this time.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Bill was a good friend who always thought of how he could help others. I am grateful to call him a friend and will miss our long talks about bonds, golf, and ways to reduce our time in the gym. He relished competition but only when played to high standards of sportsmanship and fairness. All the Melvins are in our thoughts and prayers.

Tom joins me in sending our deepest sympathy. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Heaven has gained a wonderful gentleman . Fondly, Barbara Cleveland

BILL was a TRUE GENTLEMAN !! I ALWAYS ENJOYED being in BILLS company ESPECIALLY on the golf course !! BILL AND HIS FAMILY ARE in OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS!! RIP

Great memories of Bill at Portsmouth. Among other great things a tough football guard. Hockey on the pond. Saw him last at a class reunion many years ago. Not too many of us left.

I was at Portsmouth with Bill and he and I are ( or were) almost the exact same age as my birthday is in March too, a few days before Bill's. I can't say we were close friends but I remember fun times with Bill on the football field. Regardless, it's sad to lose another classmate. Condolences to the family and Rest in Peace, Bill.
