Not sure what to say?

I first met Bill when he was a teenager. I lived across the street from his Aunt Frieda. His cousin Paula was our babysitter. He came from wonderful people. They were all great role models as was Bill. We reconnected when I started working at RCSD in 1986. Bill was a kind, loving and caring man. He always had a smile and something cheerful to say. He loved his family and his friends and always had a hug if you needed one. My heart goes out to his family as this is a great lose to all. RIP,...

I was saddened to hear that my cousin, Billy Griffo, passed away suddenly. I can remember the times when we were all young, running around "Uncle Franks" yard and being kids. Time certainly has a way of passing by and we all miss the time we have had together. We will miss you Billy.

I'm so sorry to hear about my cousin Billy Griffo passing away recently. I have so many fond memories of seeing Billy and his family at get-togethers in the 1960's and 1970's. Vividly etched in my memory are warm thoughts of spending time with his father Tom, mother Vinny, brother Jimmy, grandmother Connie, and girlfriend Francine at large Italian family events. Although my family moved to Oregon years ago, I've often looked back at those days positively.

One of my favorite memories...

I had the honor of being Bill's supervisor for the last 6 years or so. He was my right hand. I never had to worry about things when Bill was at the shop. He was the person that would calm me down when I became a little stressed. He always had a smile. We share the same sense of humor so we got along great.

We went to lunch every day together. We would talk about everything from work, politics, football and the thing that was most important to him...family. He was so proud of his two...

You can always tell where a beautiful soul has been by the tears and smiles left behind.
My heart goes out to Bill's family, but especially the special someone in his life, Barb.
Bill was an amazing man. I worked with him at the RCSD on many printing projects over the past 30 years. He always had a smile on his face and the patience of a saint. He had an amazing sense of humor. He was so proud of his boys and grandchildren and talked about them, often. Everyone loved Bill! He...

Hard to believe that I no longer can chat with Bill at the Service Center or see his smiling face.
My heart goes out to his family and loved ones.
This is a tragic loss. May God comfort you .
Bill was a joy and a truly nice man.
Sadly missed.

It didn't matter how much time had passed between our last conversations, always connected.
We'll miss you Bill.

Fran and Family,

We love you,

Your LAS Family

My deepest sympathies to Bill's boys and his family and loved ones. I worked with Bill in the print shop back in the mid 80's when I started working for RCSD. Bill was like a brother to me. He was a great story teller, and he loved to joke around and have fun. He could turn your bad day into a good one! Bill was a positive, happy-go-lucky person, with a great sense of what was important in life. So many people's hearts are aching over his losshe will truly be missed. May God's loving arms...
