William P. "Billy" Cooney

Dearest Billy ,

"THERE"
There.... was a baby in his mother's arms.
There...at home would be his brother & sisters.
There....was family hearts abound.
There... stood an alter boy in ST. JOSEPH'S Church.
There...was everyone's FRIEND.
There.... grew a teen into a man.
There... a man stood tall and married.
There....was his great smile never saying no.
There...his shoulder to lean on.
There....his neverending...

Billy:
It doesn't seem possible that there
will be no more practical jokes..
no more apples...no more hardy laughs. I treasure those memories and it is something Alice and I will make sure that we remeber always. You were like one of my brothers and I know that you are safe and loved in heaven.
Rest peacefully and know that everyone you knew will remeber you
with love and happiness.

Billy you will be missed, we will never forget you and your kindness you gave everyone each and everyday. GOD BLESS AND REST IN PEACE

YOUR COUSIN JJ

Dearest Daddy:
I thank God for the time we had together, especially this last month. It was so special that you made me feel like your princess and you will always remain in my heart forever. As Mommy and I walk foward, there will never be a day that we don't think of you and both of us will NEVER FORGET your LOVE for both of us and someday Daddy, we will all be together again as a family. Love your little princess, Jennifer and Mommy

Billy,
We are already missing your smile and laughter terribly. You will always be remembered as a wonderful friend, honorary cousin and Godfather to Laura Rose.
I know I will see you again, as you told me (take the elevator to the 3rd floor in Heaven)
I Love You, Maria

To My beloved Cousin Billy. I will always remember you for your practical jokes and your wonderful laughter. You will forever be in my heart and I know you know that I will be here to look after your beautiful daughter, Jennifer. Thank you for being a part of my life! Smiles to you above. I'll see you when I get there...I love you man.
always, Jodi :)

I'm going to you miss you Billy, you were always a presence around the neighborhood, and someone who I always looked up to. I know that your family must be going through a terrible time at your loss, but I know that you are safe in the arms of Jesus our Savior at this moment where there are no more tears and no more pain.
We have the blessed assurance that if we keep faith in Jesus as you did, we will all see each other again in Heaven, and what an awesome day that will be! May God...
