We are all praying that the Lord will comfort you with his peace, surround you all with his love and encourage you with his presence.

Helen, David, & Debbie, We were so sorry to hear of Bill's passing. Our prayers are that God hold you in his care to give you strength and healing. We always think of you and Bill with the best memories of comraderie and good times.

Bill,

It’s only been a few days since you left us. We love you and miss you. The Blitz Table will never be the same without you. It will always be Bill and Helen, Buck and Barbara, Ed and Lou, Ed and Penny and Rannie and Barbara for all of time. We know you will always be with us in spirit. It will always be easy to imagine your ever smiling face and good humor.

You’ll be an asset to heaven, and will remain in our hearts forever.

Yours and Helen’s friends,...

Bill,
Your passing was a great distress to all of us. It saddens me so much to know that you are no longer here with us in physical form, but I know that you are still with all of us spiritually, and I am confident that your spirit will continue to live through your family. We will miss you so much, but you will remain in our hearts forever. Thank you for being such a wonderful person and please continue to watch over your family.
