William J. "Billy" Cotton

I'm curious to learn if he was the same Bill Cotton that I knew in the USAF at Murphy Dome Alaska in 1958?? If so, he was a delightful fellow.

This came up in my email today and brought both sadness and a smile to my face- sadness over the loss of a wonderful man who always made me smile. We miss you Billy and we love you.

I still miss Bill but whenever I think of him, a smile crosses my face. Beloved friend.

Billy Cotton was a wonderful man who didn’t so much talk of his love of family but exhibited it in every act of caring and love especially for his wife Eleanor when she was sick. His pride in his daughters who he spoke of with laughter was clear to those who could see. Whenever I saw Bill he made me smile. I am terribly sorry for your loss Sue, Donna, Teri and family.

Sue & Family, I am so sorry for your loss. Bill & I go way back, I've known him for over 30 years and he was a great friend. He was one of the sweetest men I have ever met. He will be greatly missed by so many. He touched so many hearts with just his smile. He is no longer in pain or struggling and is attending the AA meetings in heaven with some many great men & women. RIP

Great man and great friend. He will never be for gotten.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Rest in peace Billy we love you ED + Pam

Billy will be remembered as a great guy.
Many years back we spent a lot of time together at Sams CC and on the golf course.
He was always a pleasant guy.
May he Rest In Peace.
