Not sure what to say?

Bill was a gentle gentleman. I only knew him from fishing trips to Flamingo and hunting trips. He was fun to be with and made you feel welcome. When meeting Bill, it was like you knew him all your life. I'm sure he has a good place in heaven.

Gigi and I think of you often. We are blessed to have been friends with you and Becky. God makes all of us in his liking, however he makes a few that live their life in his liking. You are one of the few! We miss you and thank God that we were allowed to be your friend. Keep locating the fishing holes in Heaven with the greatest fisherman of all, Jesus. We will fish again.

Bill, a father, husband, loyal friend, sportsman, business man, who loves God. He is one of God's primary guides on the many activities Heaven offers.
We think of you daily and offer up our prayers. Tight Lines my friend.

I loved Bill ever since we became best buddies at Morehead State University back in 1966/67 . . . He was my best hunting and fishing pal and he will be sorely missed. 45 years later we would still crack up at some of our jokes and adventures. Bill also had one of the most pleasant voices on this earth.

He's with some super fishermen now, my Dad included. Rest in peace Brother . . .

One of the greatest men I'll ever know i'm sure. I started my insurance career at Bills office. I was straight out of my enlistment in the military and knew absolutely nothing about insurance. He told me to go get my insurance license and come back and that's exactly what I did, I stayed there for 6 great years. Bill was a mentor and a man I looked up to tremendously. It will be hard passing his office everyday on the way to mine knowing that he's no longer there, although I'm sure he's...

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of need

We were sad to hear of Bill's passing. Our deepest sympathy to the family.

Sorry to hear this sad news. May the Lord comfort, encourage and bless his family and friends
