Not sure what to say?

Uncle Bill, you and Aunt Ruth and family were a big part of my summers growing up, whether in New Jersey, or my hometown of Wallingford, Vermont. The countless hours of movies documenting my Mom's life before my Dad, and the years that followed! A true treasure! And a true opponent of my husband...in the historic chess game on the gazebo! Say hello to the family on the other side!

I was mentored by Bill as a apprentice machinist at Singer Manufacturing in the early 1970's. He truly had a fantastic engineering mind and could produce any number of complicated component parts utilizing sophisticated machine tools a true magician. In addition a very patient and understanding instructor when working with apprentices, a true gentlemen. He will be missed.

Bill was an icon but especially remembered as a warm, caring individual who loved his town and brought its past to life. I treasure his efforts! We will miss you, Bill! Deepest sympathy to his friends and family.

What a life he lived! The quintessential gentleman. Loved seeing him at the games, community events and around town. An example for generations! Condolences to the family and wishing for a grand celebration of a life well lived. His legacy is unmatched.

Mr Frolich was our town historian. Always a wealth of knowledge inspiring his Roselle neighbors to stay involved and work together. My condolences to the family.

Our prayers to you at this sad time.. we remember your father with fondness and admiration.. he was such a figure on the sidelines during football game and played an invaluable part in that sport. He was also a dedicated community member and a rock for your family.. thinking of you all.. with love.

Sending heartfelt condolences to Roger and family.
