I will always remember Bill, his sisters Maxine and Betty and the Bill Freeman family. Many great memories. I also had the pleasure of driving Bill to the airport once. He took a picture of me and I still have it.

One time when I was driving Uncle Bill to Metro for one of his many trips, I got so engrossed in his story that I totally drove past the exit for the airport! He was one of a kind...probably the proudest soldier I've ever met in my life. We all loved him very much, and we'll certainly miss him. I'm just so grateful that he had such a fitting military send-off at Ft. Custer.

He was my mothers next door neighbor at The Pines. I always enjoyed talking to him when he was out and I was visiting my mother, she also enjoyed his stories of being in the army. She enjoyed hearing them as my father had also fought in W.W. II. Bill always had a friendly " Hi how are you" to everyone, he will be missed.
