Not sure what to say?

During my mother-in-laws final years he helped her with a lot of things. We will forever be grateful for his caring. When my son was in the ICU & I couldn't get off work to go to him Bill went to him & got in claiming to be my sons grandfather. He's always seemed like grandpa anyway & I lost all the others..bill was a comfort to us.

Bill was absolutely the sweetest man. His piano and organ playing cheered up the room. When he met my grandmother, Helen, they stayed together long enough that I consider him family, and so he was like a grandfather to me.

Bill,you were the best caregiver aside from my first husband who was ahead of his time too. I bet you are playing the piano for God in Heaven....see you again,Bill on the other side one day .....

Dear Bill, May you rest in peace. You were a good friend and grower for me for several years. Bill was so generous and kind. I´m glad we met standing in the NORML line in Portland several years ago.God Bless his family

Such a sweet, kind, gentle loving soul, Dearest Bill, your light, your love and your music will be remembered. We may not have gotten the road trip we once laughed about, but it was a deep, sincere joy to travel this lifetime, if even only for a brief moment. You will always be in my heart. Thank you for being such a wonderful, effulgent ray of sunshine in such stormy times.

Thank you for memories Bill. And thank you for always having a place us kids ( at the time ) could unwind and make memories that will last me a lifetime. May you rest with the angels
