Not sure what to say?

I worked with Bill on and off for several years at We Energies. I was shocked and very sad to hear of Bill's passing. He was wonderful to work with. He always listened carefully and tried to help. He was very easy to talk to. My deepest sympathies and prayers for his family and friends.

I wanted to express my sincere sympathy and condolences. I have many memories of Bill from when I first moved up here. He was always a good friend and a lot of fun. I am very sad that he is no longer here and wish you strength in moving forward. I, as I am sure many are, am thankful to have known him

I was very saddened to hear of Bill's passing. I worked with Bill at WE-Energies for a few years back in the late 70's, when the whole ‘gang’ was fresh out of college and just getting started in our careers. I lost touch with Bill over the years, but I can recall his always kind, gentle spirit and constant smile like it was yesterday.

My heartfelt condolences go out to Margaret and all of Bill's family.

“Father of all, we pray to you for those we love, but see no...

My condolences to the family of Bill. I worked with Bill at We Energies. There wasn't a day that didn't go by that I didn't run into him in the hallway. He always greeted me by name with a smile. He will be truly missed.

May God give you the strength and courage to get through this difficult time.
