Not sure what to say?

Dear Nancy, This is Laura Chew again. As you know I did not have a chance to know your son, William. As I mentioned before, I think about you and your family here in the house at 6050. We are now getting ready to move, and I vividly remember the first time we saw the house and met you and Britt. My heart goes out to you as an Angel-Mom, and I hope there are lots of family and friends who speak his name, as you are still his mom and he your son. Best wishes to all of you on this journey....

I just saw this, Nancy. I remember Billy well. We share a sorrow. My son, Shaun Jeffries, died in 2012. Wishing you all good things. --your old neighbor Janise.

RIP Billy.
Sorry for your loss

Missing my handsome brother.

Dear Nancy,
I was so so sad to hear about your son's passing. My heart is with you and your family, especially the boys. Love, Jennifer (Jane's daughter)

Dear Nancy, I never met your son, but wanted to express my sympathy to you and your family. I bought your house on Carpenter Rd many years ago and have thought of you raising your family here many times. My heart goes out to you at this time of great tragedy and sorrow. Sincerely, Laura Chew

I'm so sorry for your family's loss. May you draw close to our loving God by reading His Word, where you can find comfort in the hope that He gives us all, that of seeing our loved ones again in a beautiful new paradise home here on earth. Psalm 83:18,
Psalm 115:16

Bill, beyond his mechanical genius, was a Jack-of-all-trades and a master of many. Whenever I needed a second opinion (no matter about my car or house), Bill was my go-to-guy. I will miss him and his harrowing motorcycle and hunting/fishing stories. What a BIG heart!

I remember Bill for his performance on the witness stand a few years ago as an automotive expert witness for my client in a legal case. His knowledge was substantial and he presented it with an impressive demeanor.

I liked Bill the moment we first met, and am saddened to learn of his demise.
