I came into this family via a blended marriage between Bobby and Karen. You saw that I was this shy little lady. You told my sister to tell me it was okay to come up and hug you and I didn't have to be shy. You were my grandpa too and that I best hug you the next time you saw me. I appreciated that! Thank you for making me feel wanted and loved! Thanks for being there to watch me graduate medical school. It was hard when my world fell apart, but you told me I could do it. Thank you grandpa....

My Grandpa! You were my Only Grandpa I ever knew or met on this earth! I am proud to have been named after you. You were the source of wisdom for our family as you passed it down to my dad and others. I see you in him everyday. Grandpa you cannot be replaced by anyone or anything & you surely will be missed. I will miss you asking me at holidays to go get you a piece of pie & make it a big one... ' cause you knew you were not suppose to. I will miss you asking how Junebug was doing. You...

To the Guilliam Family: Bill and Jason especially: Our prayers are with you and we hope you find peace in your hearts knowing what a special man your father and grandfather was. This will be a difficult time in your lives, but know that you have many friends who share your loss. May God Bless Bill, Sr. and welcome him into his kingdom so that we (selfishly) know that we have one more guardian watching us.
