William J. Batayte Sr.

Kirsten, Willy, Matthew and Zachary, Today I received the tragic news of Billy's passing. I am so sorry to hear that you and your family have endured such pain. I will always remember Billy for his incredible sense of humor, he had such a knack for making me laugh at the silliest things. He was such a wonderful father and husband. Kirsten, he loved you so much and you could see that in his eyes each time you were together.
"What I like about you"....

I am so sorry for you and your family over the loss of Bill. I had the pleasure of working with Bill at Xerox. He had that humor about him that just looking at him made you smile.

To the Batayte family,

I am saddened by the loss of my friend Billy. Billy lived up the street from me and we went to St Brigid's and Northwest together. I fondly remember the times we spent walking to and from school. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Please be comforted by your memories and the knowledge that he will always be there to support you.

We had the pleasure of meeting such a wonderful individual. We have been sadden by the news of one of God's Angels returning to the arms of our Savior. He made campouts look like a piece of cake. We will miss you grealty. To the kids Zach and Matt our prayers are with you and your mom.

I will always remember Bill as a warm, friendly, caring individual. My deepest sympathies go out to the entire Batayte family.

This is such a sad event. My heart breaks for you, for your children. But Bill leaves his children one of the richest inheritances possible: the memory of a man who knew how to be a great father, a good friend, someone loved, respected and admired. His big, friendly presence will be missed. But his gifts will stay with us always.

Kirsten, Zach, Mathew & William,
May God guide you and comfort you during this time of such great loss. Billy will truly be missed by us all. The scouts and leaders of Pack 74 will forever treasure his memory. Our prayers and thoughts are with all of you.

Kirsten,Zach,Matt,
We are deeply sadden by your loss.
We want you to know that our prayers are with you.
Please feel that you can count on us if you need anything.

Helen, Kiersten and family,

Very sorry to hear about Billy. Our
thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love, Doris & Ronny
