Not sure what to say?

In support of Jim Antonucci, our thoughts are with you and your family, for this week and the days ahead.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire family. May you rest in peace.

We will miss you Bill

Our hearts are filled with great sadness at the passing of our dear family friend. We will miss your music, your laughter, you coming out to go fishing at our house in the summer and joining us on Saturdays for Michigan football games.

My condolences to the Antonucci family for the loss of William. May God's Word strengthen you during this difficult time. (Isa. 41:10,13)

Uncle Bill -- your words have always been an inspiration to me, whether verbal, written, or musical. Your wonderful stories are endless and timeless. I decided to write you a poem a couple of weeks ago to fully capture the capacity of your words, though I never got a chance to share it with you. Here it is:


Words

These words are infinite;
These words are old.
Time betrays the body,
But harvests the soul--

These words outlive
All that...

Rest in peace, Billy.
Thank you for the beautiful music you brought to my life.
You and your music will stay in my heart forever.
