William,
I miss you every single day. It's hard to breathe, to get out of bed, to know that you won't have an ending. I know you are in a better place, keeping the world safe. I am so thankful to have had the love that we shared. So blessed to have known you for over 8 years, and so honored to be called a "Payne."

Dear Donna & Family,
I remember the conversation he & I had on a March day many years ago when he wanted to go in my pool. I said no & then he accidently fell in the pool & I had to fish him out.
I will always remember when he said my name & then his face would turn red, his shoulders would go up & his remarkable smile would shine through melting your heart.
May he finally soar with the angels because this is what the "King" wanted for him.
Much Love to...

Martha and I are so sorry that William has left all of us. There are no words I can give you that can make his leaving not hurt. We love our children so much that the loss of one is intolerable. We are supposed to leave first! That is how we have been trained, but it happens from time to time. The Lord has plans that we don't know about. He did bring him home to you and what a blessing that was. You were able to spend time with him. You guys are so full of love each and every one of you....
