Carolee and I and Steve,Kevin, and Greg were so sorry to hear about Bill. May God be with you and bless you in this time of sorrow. We all have fond memories of Bill and all of you on Shady Ridge and at school and Ganson St Baptist Church. Love
Ray and Carolee and family.

He was always a real Gentleman and an inspiration. Larry Jennings
