As Chairman of the DRW Trustees I would like to formally offer the condolences of everyone involved with DRW in the U.K. The impact of Bill's work in the ministry of divorce recovery will continue to be felt for many years to come.
Whilst most of the many thousands of people that have been helped by DRW in the U.K. never met Bill in person they feel that they know him well through the videos and will treasure his words of wisdom and encouragement for the rest of their lives.

Although we have never met Bill, having been involved in around 20 Divorce Recovery Workshops we feel that we have come to know and love him through the video presentations that we watch each time. We and the thousands of people who have benefitted from the wisdom and honesty of this true man of God will be eternally grateful. Our condolences to his family and friends, we will pray that you know the loving presence of God during your grief.

Just wanted to say thank you for the work of DRW.

As a beneficiary of the DRW course in 1998 I was delighted and privileged to meet 'Flan' when he came to the UK to re-record the DRW videos in 2000.

Bill's love for his fellow man, and the gift he gave to so many in the DRW course has changed lives, including my own.

I will remember Bill with fondness and gratitude, and feel saddened by his passing.

My condolences to all his family and friends. May our ever-loving God bless you and support you in your...

Christy and Julie,
You know more than many the gifts that God gave to Bill, your loving Husband and Father. We, who knew him through Divorce Recovery Workshop here in the UK, are profoundly grateful for his vision, love and understanding to many thousands going through the break-up of meaningful relationships. We are blessed to have two sets of videos of 'Flan' giving his lectures. An American version from the 1980's and then an English version filmed when he visited us in Basingstoke in...

Christy and Julie,
I was so fortunate to make contact with "Bill" after more than 40 years. He was our youth pastor, along with you, Christy, in Burbank in the 1960's. You'll never know the profound effect you both had on my life. I wish we could go back to Arizona for Easter Week. It was my sincere pleasure to know you both. Lois and my prayers are with you all.

Christy and Julie,

We were so sorry to hear about Flan's passing but thankful he is no longer in pain and enjoying fellowshipping with our Lord and Saviour. He was such a wonderful witness for our Lord Jesus Christ in every aspect of his life. The memorial service was beautiful yesterday and I'm certain he was smiling down from Heaven listening in to what was said.

He played an important role in counseling Bruce and I prior to officiating at our wedding some 14 years...

To the Family,
Although I have not seen Bill in many years, I knew of his work in the service of our Lord. I graduated from Dorsey Hi in"57 and was his classmate.
Bill will be missed.
