Not sure what to say?

I have fond memories of Bill - a great guy a good friend back in Westchester - my condolences to his family...

Bill was a consummate PR pro and well regarding in our field. Always a classy guy. So sorry to hear this news.

Terry and Maureen,

Although we never knew your brother Bill, we have come to learn from all these heartfelt condolences that he was a very special person. May the Lord hold Bill and you and all your grieving family in the palm of His hand.

Janelle & family, so sorry for your loss. Bill was a wonderful colleague of mine in those early days of Apple. I always valued his advice and counsel.He always had a smile and a great positive attitude. Diana and I have you, Janelle and the family, in our thoughts and prayers. Thinking of you at this difficult time. God Bless You All. Tom & Diana Fitzgerald

My most heartfelt condolences to the Keegan family. I knew Billy back in grammar school and he was a good guy all the way back then. I am sure Billy will missed, but his love and good cheer was a blessing from God for all the lives he so richly touched! Rest in peace William.

I was stunned and deeply saddened by this news. Billy was my first roommate at St. Mary's. He was the suave guy, really cool type. I was not. I loved him. He was always kind. We shared many memories and I can recall them as if just yesterday. He was a good guy.
Even when it is time, the heart is never ready to let go of the one we love. God bless the family and I hope you find some solace in the love, friendship, and spirit that Bill brought to so many.

Greatly saddened to learn of "Keegs" passing. I know Billy had many admiring friends, and I am proud to have been one of them. The world has lost someone very special. Please accept my sympathy on your sad loss. Yours truly,

So many people counting their blessings for having Billy in their lives. I wish I could have been there to celebrate and grieve with all of you. My heart and prayers go out to Janelle, the girls, Colleen, Terry and Mrs. Maureen Keegan and all of Bill's nieces and nephews. Bill had such a warm and welcoming smile. He left the world better than he found it.

Cousin Billy:
A priest once said:
Where there is love, that is what makes the passing of a good friend so difficult
but is in that love that we take solace and comfort in all the fond memories we shared.
The best compliment ever from your mentor Whitey was you can be in my foxhole anytime...I know he felt that way and I can only second that strong espirit de corps. Thanks for all the good times together fighting the good fight in your early PR career and all the many kindnesses...
