Not sure what to say?

Dear Frank, Pam, and Family,

It's been a long time since we saw Bill and Dottie. They will be missed. We always seemed to be a better person when we around them.

It's really great to know that Christians never meet for the last time. We will see them again.

God Bless all of you.

I'll always remember Bill Nees. I used to go to the hardware store with my father, Paul Zimmerman who taught at Akron North High School.
Bill was a great gentleman and was a dear friend of my father.

I never met Mr. Nees or his wife, but I had the wonderful opportunity to pray for him alongside his daughter-in-law, Pam Nees at Thursday evening bible study. Pam spoke tenderly about him and I sensed what a great man he must have been. My heart goes out the the family at this time.

Pam, Frank and Family,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Bill sounds like a wonderful person. I'm sorry that we never knew him.

Love, Ron, Lynne & family

I will never forget Bill Nees.
Bill had such an early impact on me as a fellow employee (at Marsh Hardware).
Bill shared with me his love for the hardware business and his love for his Lord, Jesus. I am still to this day so very greatful he shared them both with me.
His actions (no matter how slow he moved) spoke louder then any words. A True Gentleman.
At that time, (1981) I was a young man with a new family and Bill displayed to me what a Godly man should be...

I remember Mr. Nees from going to the hardware store on Cuyahoga Falls Ave. as a little girl with my Grandfather. He would let me mix the birdseed that was always in the large cans in the store. He always smiled at me and made me feel like the best birdseed mixer in town. I'll be praying for your family.

I think that's the best obituary I have ever read. What a great tribute. It makes me wish I had known Bill. To the Nees family, we are praying for His strength and comfort to support you. God bless. The Paisleys

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
