I was classmates with Bill all the way back at Byrd middle school and Freeman high. I remember Bill as a very friendly guy. It was a pleasure to have known him.

Billy & I were in band together at DSF and we also dated off & on for a few years. He was always upbeat & cheerful & had a positive attitude. He was also my first love so he will always hold a special place in my heart. I pray that God will comfort all of his family & friends and may everyone have at least one beautiful memory that will also live forever in your hearts as well.

Bill and I met @ VCU, got our degrees in accounting and we both became CPAs. We were good friends and shared a lot of fun times together.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. May the Holy Spirit comfort you and keep you in perfect peace.

Bill was a very smart man. He is the father of two extraordinary children. He now may now rest in the arms of our Lord and Savior. We will miss Bill and find comfort and love with family and friends.
