Nan,
As a neighbor, I used to see you and Bill strolling by, the picture of the ideal couple. The conversations we used to have at Au Bon Pain, and when you both would wander into my store, still are in my memory. And that's where Bill will live on, in the minds of many in Cambridge who came to know and admire him and his work.

Sincerely,

Dear Uncle William,
It is still a shock to me that you are gone physically. My only regret is that I didn't get to see you before you made your transition into the spiritual realm. But know that you were truly loved and admired. You will always be an integral part of my life. Someone that I will cherish forever. Rest in peace!!!!
Your Beloved Niece,
