Not sure what to say?

As Bill became sick I found myself grief stricken beyond what I could explain in words. As the days passed I felt a need to understand the magnitude of my feelings. I thought back to when Bill and I first met. He remembers this better than I do as he told me the story many years later. My dad introduced us because Bill needed help waxing his boat I and did that kind of work. We were at the old Isotek address on Wilbur ave. and he came out to check on how I was doing as Bill would kindly do....

Through Jenny I had the privilege of knowing Bill for over 15 years. The first time that I met him was in the house by the sea when I would frequently fly over to the USA for meetings in Connecticut.

Bill was always bright, warm and engaging with a concise and direct way of expressing himself. I often felt that he had an ‘old school’ integrity – all too rare these days. He embraced all kinds of people and was forgiving and immediately sympathetic to those less fortunate. His...

From the whole family, Denise, James, Joanna and James

From Naples, Florida. We will miss you Bill and the great times at dinners and in our condos. Jennie, we look forward to seeing you soon.

Dear Jennie,
We are so very grateful and honored to have had Bill share a part of our lives. We will miss him, but will always celebrate his life because we have such wonderful memories.

Although we spent very little time with Bill, we have fond memories of him. Easy to get along with, and a great sense of humour. Very saddened to hear of his passing. All our love Jennie, we know you adored each other. In our thoughts, Tricia & Kevin

Bill loved his family and our condolences also go to his mother, siblings and children.
We are grateful for the time we spent with Bill and Jennie last year, a time for one last hug. Tina especially...

My memories of uncle Bill are mostly from my youth. I enjoyed sailing and talking with him. Unfortunately, I've spent the last 27 years living abroad and have missed spending time with him. I send my condolences to all of his family.
