Dear Barbara, Brian & Bryn-Carol, Blake, Billy jun., & Families,

I am so sorry to hear of your husband/father Bill's passing. He always started chatting and a bit joking with me when we happened to see each other upon my visits to his brother's family in the U.S. It's so sad that only 4 weeks later, his brother - my dear Uncle Pete - passed away as well. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and I wish you a lot of strength in these difficult times. May God bless you now and always.

With sympathy,
Sylvia

Always, Revs. Brian & Beth Wills

I am very grateful and blessed to have known Bill. His immediate acceptance of me into WRBA meant a lot, especially when he welcomed me with open arms and invited me to sit at his table. His legacy of openness and acceptance has been carried on through his sons, Blake and Billy. May God bless you all with His peace, grace and goodness.

I have known Billy(he was Billy then) since the late 40s when I woud go with his uncle Carlton and family to visit his parents, and eat ice cream.
I didn't see Bill again until the late 60s when we ran into each other in Henrico. Bill sold us our first home in 1973 and our present home in 1977(selling our old house). We usually would run into each other a few times a year, often at Peoples Drug Westland for a cup of coffee.
Like Mark Twain, I don't think Bill every met a man he didn't like. He was that kind of person.
I will miss you Billy, my friend.

My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Eudailey family during your time of mourning.

I first met Mr. Eudailey in 1975 while working at my first job, he would come into Safeway and we would talk about Freeman sports and his family,both which he loved dearly. I ran into him a couple years back and he still remembered me and our talks, He will be missed. My prayers go out to his family, they have truly lost a great man.
