Katy J, My dear friend my heart and prayers go out to your family during this difficult time. Know that the prayers are ever flowing friend! Allow the memories and joy of times past to guide you in healing! The Lord hears your cries and bares all that you and your family cannot. I am here if you need me.

Dearest Clanin family,
We are all blessed to have shared our lives with Bill, and to have received his greatest gift--his friendship.
You all are in our thoughts and prayers.

Marilyn,

You are in my prayers. Bill was a great man and a great friend to my dad. I so enjoyed meeting the guys at the Steam Plant Saturday morning to hear their crazy stories - most of which were embellished quite a bit! God Bless.

I always enjoyed Bill and his stories. He will be missed. You are in my prayers.

Marilyn,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of sorrow.

Dear Marilyn and girls,

I have many memories of Bill from work at Jack Wolf. It was always a joy to see him. I am saddened to hear of his passing and will always consider him a friend.

Dear Mariln and Girls,
While miles apart at this time of your sorrow, Sharon and I are so saddened by his passing. Bill was brother and a man I called friend. The two B's are now together again. Red & Sharon Elliott

I have many fond memories of Bill. As a boy, I thought his furniture store was a fasincating place. He made me feel welcome there.

Years later, when I saw him performing his duties as county board chairman, I was always impressed with how hard he worked and how he always did his best to keep on top of things.

Belvidere and Boone County will miss him.
