Joanne -I am so sorry to hear of Bills passing - while working for him, I found him to be a compasionate person and I loved working for him.

My heart goes out to the family. May God who binds up the brokenhearted and comforts all who mourn provide you with strength and comfort you need during this difficult time (Isaiah 61:1,2).

Joanne - my sincere condolences. Both you and Bill made a lasting impact on me. Thank you for playing a role in making me the person I am today. Hugs and prayers for your comfort, and rejoicing for Bill going home.
