At the E.Rivers Memorial for Bill

This is probably "out of the ordinary", but I feel compelled to thank all of the wonderful people who have left such beautiful comments, thoughts, memories and lovely notes about my son - you have no idea how much comfort I receive from reading and re-reading these. Tears may come occasionally as I read some of them, or as I remember those of you that I have met as I visited him in GA, but the tears are fine - and welcome because of the comfort you have brought me.

Thank you all so...

I didn't know Mr. Haynes very closely, but I know that he had a major impact on my high school's music program at Centennial High School, and I'm incredibly grateful for that. Moreover, Mr. Haynes' contribution to the music played by students throughout Fulton County will never be forgotten. Thank you, Mr. Haynes, for all you've done for the beautiful music in my schools.

I am sorry for your loss. My prayers are with the family both now,and forever.

I thank Mr. Haynes for the music he taught my daughter, and her classmates. She brought home his music often, singing them spontaneously, with a clear emotional connection. Those songs will ring on to eternity. He often greeted the children and parents at the front door of our school, as they entered in the morning, and was clearly dedicated to his role as educator. He will be missed, and his music will continue to play on in the hearts, thoughts, words and lives of all he touched. Schools...

It is with deep sadness,and sympathy that I tell the family that I am sorry for the loss of Mr. Bill. He truly was a caring, and compassionate individual. My prayers are with the family during this time of bereavement.

May the God of all comfort strengthen the family during this time of deep sorrow. Those who pass on God keeps in his memory because they are precious in his eyes. My sincerest condolences. Psalms 116:15 -

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Offering our deepest condolences to the family and friends in your hour of grief.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
