Not sure what to say?

Dear Joyce & Family, My deepest sympathy to you on the death of your Dad. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

Dear Friends, I am so sorry for your loss. I know from my friendship with Joyce that her parents were incredible people with a whole lot to offer to the family and to the world. It is sad to lose someone we hold so dear, and our thoughts are with you as you begin this difficult journey. May god bless you all.

With love,
Corinne, Lula and Emiliano

I was terribly saddened to hear of Buddie's death. I remember so many wonderful visits when I was younger to his and Reggie's house in Longmeadow with Joe, Butch, Patty and Nene and I know Butch will miss his brother's visits to the cape.
Although we can't be with you today we sent our love.
Patty (Hill), Emily and Butch Dolan

Joyce - these rememberances of your dad sound like our talks about him. A good man indeed. My thoughts are with you and your family.

To the Dolan Family,
I was a rookie patrolman when I met Bill in the early '70's. He was tough as nails, had no neck, and had a grip like a vise! He was a mentor and a legend. Twenty years later when I ran into him at Cape Cod Day in Bonita Springs, Florida, he hadn't changed! His bald head was just more tan and he still had the vise-like grip! Bill was a man's man and gentleman. I'm proud to have called him friend and know that he will be missed by all who knew him. My thoughts...

My cousin "Bud" was a real tough guy. But he was a lot of fun at family gatherings.We lost touch over the years dut to miles but I think of him often.

Sending love and prayers to the Clifford, Hickson, and Dolan families. I wish I had the chance to know William, yet given his amazing daughter (my dear friend Joyce), I can only imagine what a wonderful man he was.
With condolences,
Kara
