Not sure what to say?

I am so very sorry to hear of Bill's passing. What a dedicated servant of God! He will be greatly missed by all who knew him, loved him, and served with him over the years. What a great man, husband, father, grandfather, and friend! God bless you Bill, and God bless your family! Blessed are those who meet our Lord face to face! Well done good and faithful servant, well done!

Dear Pamela and family. We are very sorry for your loss. Wishing you peace during this difficult time. We remember with gratitude the time in Birzai (Lithuania) and in your welcoming home. Bill's encouraging smile and friendliness will always be in our memories. Renata & Rimas Mikalauskas

We have so many memories of mission trips we went on together. Bill was our "fearless leader" and taught us many valuable skills and how to be a servant of all. We also spent many hours enjoying games together. His smile and gentle spirit helped us to find the positive in all situations. Bill will be missed by all of us who knew and loved him. Love, Carol & Mike Putt

Bill in Lithuania 2011 with Burhardt Paetzhold

Words can not adequately express our sympathy for you Pam, Mike, and Eric. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Bill was a service oriented person who gave much to his community. He is serving a higher calling now. May you find comfort and peace in the times to come through those memories of all that has gone before.

Our sincerest condolences to Pam and the entire family and his friends for the lost of a great man. Bill was both a neighbor and friend and we often chat about his mission trips, his visits with friends and family as he either was walking by, outside working in the yard, or driving by and would stop and chat. Always kind and soft spoken. We will miss him for sure. Bill got me 'hooked' on one of his favorite hobbies, stained glass creation. He mentored me on my first project over 14 years ago...

Oh dear Pam and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Please know that the Rosenblum girls and I are thinking of you with fond memories and love.

PAM AND FAMILY, I WAS SADDENED UPON LEARNING OF BILLS PASSING. I REMEMBER FONDLY OUR TIMES TOGETHER AT PINE STREET AND OUR MISSION TRIP TO PUERTO RICO. TOM HANSHAW
