Not sure what to say?

I can´t believe it´s been 13 years since you´ve been gone. I can still hear you laughing, teasing, advising. I can imagine the things you´d say about the past couple of years.. I´m sure the jokes would be priceless. I still have your emails from your last year and I treasure them. You are still missed and loved by so many. The hole that you left in our hearts will never heal. I love you!

Thank God you dont' have to wear this mask I can hear you now! Miss you more than you know Bill, forever my dearest friend & always in my heart! Love you, really mean It...... xoxo

Add our favorite "memory". That's impossible.....it would be favorite "memorIES". So many times that I think of you and laugh. At Universal recently. Thinking of Mardi Gras and waiting for your car. Of another car trip with you and Julie. To a holy event that got pretty hysterical. A fun night at my house after someone's going away party at KOS- when you opened up random Christmas Gifts that were under the tree. I often watch my going away video just so I can see you and be reminded of how...

Bill it's still hard to believe you are gone and three years at that... Thank you for "Blessing" me with so many wonderful years of friendship, good times and awesome memories; YOU are always close to my heart and miss you soooooo much!
Till we meet again dear friend, I Love you lots, really mean it! xo

JUNIOR SENIOR PROM 1969

Dearest Bill...
My most favorite next door neighbor at Cambridge Court Apartments. Driving to Cross Keys High School together you make me laugh harder than ANYONE else.

Was I the only date you ever had when I was responsible for the Junior Senior Prom as president? You took me, looked like you stepped out of GQ Magazine. We doubled with Billy Adams and Frances Plavanicky. Then you made us go bowling in our formals and tuxedos at Northeast Plaza. You laughed so hard you were...

Merry Christmas my wonderful brother Bill. Thanks for the laughs and all of the memories. You will be in my heart forever. Nancy

You are certainly one of a kind and I can't stop thinking about you every day. You're probably saying "Oh, please...get over over it", but there are so many things that remind me of you.

I am extremely proud to say I was your assistant for over 7 years. You would always refer to me as your right arm. Others viewed our relationship like husband and wife. Heck...we did go through 2 pregnancies together.

You were my mentor and dear friend, always there for me. You taught me...

Many years ago in 1970 at Cross Keys High School Bill became our friends. We had so much fun together during those few short years of our lives together. Alice Barnett Folsom and I always smile when we think of Bill and the memories we share.

28 years ago Bill and my paths crossed. I, moving to Atlanta GA. to work at the Westin Peachtree Plaza, taking the Peachtree up on their offer of temporary housing while I located housing in the Atlanta area. I wasn’t the average Intern arriving to start their career, and in that short year I was there I learned that Bill wasn’t average either. Bill was as true a friend as one could ever hope for, a truly special person. Who else would take home some new intern’s German Sheppard and dog...
