Not sure what to say?

Dear Eileen, Daniel and David, I am so profoundly saddened to learn of Bill's death. As you may remember Bill and I worked together at DND for several years. As a boss, Bill was extremely supportive, caring and encouraging. He brought a level of professionalism that was matched by few. As a friend, which I came to call him with much pride and love, he was full of great warmth and caring. Always with a quick laugh and generous hand. I will always remember him with great fondness. God...

Sorry for your loss, Bill was a good soul.

Bill was a classmate at St William's a lifetime ago. Always polite, quiet and sweet. Remember him fondly and so sorry for your loss. Alzheimer's is a thief; lost my brother to it just last summer. God bless.

Many cherished and fond memories of Billy have been shared by parents, friends, siblings, fans and players in the Savin Hill Baseball League (SHBL), an organization Billy loved and devoted much of his time and energy promoting along with the Boys & Girls Club.

Billy will be remembered by many as that tall gentleman strolling about the Savin Hill neighborhood sporting a genuine smile and with a cheerful "Hello" to his many friends and neighbors.

So sorry for your loss. Bill was a great guy to work with.

Truly sorry to hear this. Sending our condolences from Florida. A true son of Savin hill!!
