To the Matthews Family - I am praying for you all during this difficult time. I have fond memories of Mr. Bill and his jokes. He was always ready to give a sax selection on anyone's church program. I'm sure he and uncle buck are playing a duet together and laughing. That thought makes me smile and I hope that it will bring a smile to your face. With Love -Anissa Brown
