I was very sorry to hear of Bill's passing. He always greeted me with a smile when walking his dog by my house and sometimes stopped for a quick chat. He was a fine man and will be missed by all that were fortunate enough to have known him.
With sincerest condolences,

The Ice Bucket Challenge became famous as a fundraiser for ALS research. That would have been nothing for Billy. He took his Hampton Lifeguard swim test in water about that cold. A true leader of the Hampton Guards and an admired and loved friend by all he knew. Proud to say he considered me a friend. We wish him a much deserved peace now.

Remembering your great love story today and always.

To the family and friends of Bill, please accept my condolences. Knew Bill from our St. Mary's days, playing ball, working at Rigazio's Market and later at Plymouth State. Well liked by all. A shame someone who enjoyed life so much is gone to soon.
