Not sure what to say?

What a guy old Senor Nelson as we affectionally called him! I witnessed his hard work 20 some years ago, opening the 1st El Encanto. I always looked forward to his good stories/jokes when he stopped by the store.
Our deepest sympathies to his family.

I just learned the sad news of Bill's passing. I had known Bill since the days of coaching softball with him for Jen and Lauren, and had many fine meals at his restaurant. Those are good memories. My family wishes Jen, Lauren and their family all the best and that your sorrow will fade quickly behind the love and memories.

God Bless,
Bill, Sue, Erin & Katie
