Dear Betsey, Bill, Elizabeth, and family, sorry to hear about Bill passing. He was one of the kindest men. His smile was infectious. I can still hear him compliment Betsey's BBQ shrimp but asking if she could make it better by peeling them. I hope fond memories carry you all through the pain and loss. Love Tobin Fuss

Betsey, Dickie and I missed attending the celebration of Bill's life at the Ethical Society. It would have been so comforting-how appropriate your name is Comfort-to see all of Bill's friends and family, many of whom we share, many of whom we would have loved to meet.
You both are such outstanding people, devoted, loving, brilliant, giving. Know that we would we were able to give you and your family some solace, a warm, enduring embrace. Know most of all how much Bill's

Dear Betsey,
Bill was our dear friend for 37 years, and we enjoyed him every minute of them. Although most of our visits over the last few years were 'business', when he walked into the AmeriCorps office, just like he had done for years at the American Youth Foundation and STREAM, the whole place lit up with his generous smile and big hugs. It was never really about the business. He was one of the most honorable and joy-filled men that I have ever met. His love of life, of you, and of...

Betsey, You were most fortunate to have a husband like Bill. I know he must have been a great father.He was the best athlete I ever knew as well as a sincere friend to all that his life touched. My son-in- law, Scott H went to Mizzou with young Bill. My grandson Hunter attended Central Christian School with Joseph. They loved Bill.. Know you will have great memories of your wonderful husband. Enjoy them.

Bill was a joy.He was a much-appreciated member of many shared trout fishing trips. He was a caring, friendly, enjoyable man who filled the hours with many stories, jokes and musings. He made delicious smoked trout. He will be missed and well remembered.

Know that you and the family are in our thoughts and prayers during this time.
Enjoyed hearing of how you and Bill had the opportunity to share so many wonderful times of travel and fun with the family through the years. Hold on to these wonderful memories!!
We are out of town. Look forward to seeing you when we return.
