Billy was a next door neighbor at 212 Main Street, where we lived. The Gonzalos. I was so sad to hear of his passing, we would say hi to each other, talk for a little bit, at the store that is now where our house used to be. We all used to hang together as kids! Will miss him....

We are so sorry to hear of Bill's passing. We were neighbors years ago when we lived on Knollwood Rd. Bill was always so friendly and kept in touch with us long after we left Reading, May God comfort him, bless him, and may he rest in peace!
