Not sure what to say?

I was deeply saddened by the news of Bill's passing. My heart felt condolences to you and your family. I worked with Bill at NN Social Services. He was very compassionate about his job and would often talk about his family. I will be praying for you and your family.

Dear Kim, Bill was one of my friends/classmates in high school. I was so sad and shocked to hear of his passing. Am very sorry for your loss. God Bless you and your family and keep you all in His care. Kathy Wilkerson Firth

I am so sorry for your family's loss. I worked with Bill at Social Services and he was very kind. May your cherished memories give you comfort during this hard time.

Kim and Randi,
I first met Bill in mile 8 of the Battlefield 10 miler in 2005. I caught him and asked what age group he was in and when he said 50 - 54 the race was on. No surprise, he won. Before a 5K once he told me to go out with reckless abandon, we're old and nobody cares if we have to jog the last mile. Best racing advice I ever got. Bill became a friend, one with great humor whom I both admired and appreciated. I will miss him very much.

Kim and Randi, I 'm very sorry to hear about Bill's untimely passing. I missed his obituary in Thursday's paper and would have loved to attend the gathering at Panera. Bill was always such a good neighbor, always willing to loan a tool or offer a helping hand. I'll miss him much. May God bless and keep you and Randi.

Keeping you all lifted in prayer. Knowing that God will wrap you in his arms and love on you just as any good father does!

Always remember and then smile at a life that was lived to its fullest and even then overflowing!!!

To the Alto family. I am sorry for your loss. I worked with Bill at NNDSS which was indeed my pleasure. He had a good spirit and a wonderful sense of humor. He truly enjoyed the great outdoors. He will be missed. God's blessings to you during your loss.
