DIANNE: THE ILLINOIS BRANCH OF THE DOODAH PARADE HAVE YOU IN OUR PRAYERS, BLESSINGS

Diane, I doubt you remember me. I met Bill in the early 80's, when I was the Sales Director of a Holiday Inn in St. Clairsville, OH, and he was down there working on a long term project. You came down and spent a few weekends there. He was a LOT of outrageous fun, and my, how often and eloquently he spoke of how much he loved you. He had an outrageous sense of fun and the world around him was an enjoyable place to be. I am so sorry for your loss. Christine Tunanidis

I may not have personally known the man, but Beth was kind enough to share amazing stories that touched my life. From the passions shared in the cycling world to individuality expressed in the Doodah Parade, he was a true, real, kind hearted man who will undoubtedly be missed by many. He will never be forgotten.

I worked with Bill at the Nielston location, he was truly a lot of fun and a friend to me. God Bless the family and I am sorry for your loss.

For Bill's amny family and friends, I am sorry I didn't have the chance to meet him. He was truly blessed with loving family,friends. I recently "found" some of my "Kiener Cousins"-those related thru the Clifford side of the family, and what a wonderful,loving group they are. I will always be sorry I did meet Bill.LizzRunkle Grant

Bill and I went way back. He and I worked at the THIRSTY"I" .He was a great person and friend

I'm so sorry to hear of Bill's passing.I remember some good times at the union hall when he'd play Santa for the kids Christmas parties.Before the kids arrived he'd tell some funny jokes just to relax people and he'd make eye contact with me when he'd have a child sitting on his lap and we'd just both start laughing! Bill,you will be remembered FOREVER!!!!!

Bil will be missed. I remember working for House of Hope and Bill took some of the guys to Lake Erie for the week end he was an amazing man and great example on how sobriety is fun.

I worked with Bill at Ohio Bell and we had a great time while we were there. He was a funny guy and a friend, I will miss him. We hadn't kept in touch over the years but he was a friend.
