Not sure what to say?

I was thinking of Bill tonight as I watch the championship game between Alabama and Ohio. Decided to Google his name to see if it said anything abour Bill playing for Ala. I am very saddened to see he passed last year.
Bill was a cousin of mine, my mom and his dad were brother and sister.
I still remember hearing the story of Bill and another player hitting head to head and splitting Bill's helmet in half.
With us growing up in different states and Bill being 9 years...

Bill was a great classmate, teammate and friend. He was one of a kind. May God comfort his family in this season of heartbreak and sadness.

Enjoyed doing business with Bill for many years and he was very good at his trade. He was one of the good guys in life that you meet that leaves a lasting impression and has a positive impact on your life. May God surround his family with his presence! Spencer Adams

Cindy, I know these last few years have been so hard for you and Bill. He's left a rich heritage full of good memories. I pray you'll find comfort in the prayers and thoughts from friends. God be with you and wrap you in His loving arms.

May God's amazing grace and comfort through the heart of Jesus surround you during this season of joy and sadness. Bill was a great man and the godly seeds he planted will continue to sprout and blossom throughout the people he knew and loved. He is accepted in the beloved.

Bill will be missed by so many. He was such a nice man. He was an outstanding football player in high school and an extremely successful contractor in his adult life. He always had that smile you never forget. I was fortunate to call Bill my friend and send prayers to all the family.
