Not sure what to say?

Kathy;
I learned about Bill only this past Saturday. Although it has been years since I've seen either of you, the loss hit hard. Those days waitressing at Wonderburger were some of the craziest times of my life. Never, ever will I forget Bill's kindness and soft heart. I don't think there is anyone on the planet who could say an unkind thing about him. Hence, I am so sorry for your loss. Also, I am not sure you would remember me. I'm the waitress who worked with both of you and went on...

Dear Kathy & Family:
Phil & I are very sorry for your loss. Bill was a wonderful person and we both enjoyed working with him. (Phil at ISI & Laurie at Arthur Andersen)Bill was such a hard worker and very dedicated to his work. I will never forget him and all the good times we all had at 33 W. Monroe. We will surely miss him and our prayers go out to you and your family during this challenging time.

May God Bless You and Keep you Strong!

All Our Best,

Laurie Giller &...

Dear Kathy and family,
We were so very sad to hear of your loss. It always seems that God takes the best far too soon. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this very difficult time. May you find peace in memories of the good times and the love that you shared. Bill will always be with you each of you in a special way as he watches over you. May God's blessings be with you.

Mrs. Pranske, Jill, Meredith, and Lauren,
I am so very sorry to hear about your loss. Your family is in our prayers.

Mrs. Pranske, Jill, Meredith, and Lauren,

We just wanted to let you know that we are deeply sorry about Bill's passing. We always enjoyed spending time with him on the sidelines of our daughters' basketball games and thought he was a great person- kind and fun. Kelly also has fond memories of him always being a supportive parent/fan. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.

Sincerely,
The Jung Family

Even at 50 I often think of my days at St. Christiana and those people (who even though I never saw after graduation) knew that they were special - and that is what I thought of Bill - he was the nicest kid throughout our years at St. Christiana and later learning of him marrying Kathy (who I went to McAuley with). You are all in my prayers and I hope your memories of him keep your love alive. We will all see him again playing basketball with Bob Cook, Steve P, Mike Grant, Danny L, Dave...

It was close to 40 yrs. ago I was shooting hoops alone @ St. Christina's parking lot. When some skinny guy a little older than me joined me. He taught me the proper way to take a jump shot. I didn't know it was Jean's brother til later. I have never forgotten his kindness & I never will. Thanks Bill
My Prayers are with all the Pranske family

Dear Kathy and Girls: I am so sorry to hear about Bill. I have many fond memories of him at St. Christina and beyond. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I am so sorry for your loss Kathy. We've lost touch in recent years, but I always have such fondness for you and your family. May God give you and the girls His comfort at this difficult time.
