William J. "Billy" Reisser

Tom, Ellen and Ryan
I am sorry we were unable to come to the service for Billy. I know how much Billy meant to all of you. He was a great "Phillies Fan" maybe the sweep of the Mets was a gift for him. You know I lost my sister several years ago. The one thought I've used to deal with her not being here,has been: knowing she is at peace in heaven I could not bring her back if I was able to do it. I'm sure we will be seeing you all soon until then our thoughts and hearts are with you.

Dear Tom,
Billy was such a sweet person. Back in 1958-59, Billy, Susie and I used to be mesmerized by American Bandstand - we watched it everyday. When every copy of the #1 hit record of "Sixteen Candles" was sold out in the record stores, Billy gave me his copy !!!!

My mother loved Billy and thought the Reisser family was just terrific. After your mother passed, my mom continually reminisced about her good times with Alva and Duck.
Of course you may remember that my mother...

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Tom, Ellen and Ryan~

I am so sorry for your loss. Billy was such a ray of sunshine. I remember when you guys lived on Dawn Mar, coming over when he was visiting and he would make us laugh and laugh. I pray for you all to find peace in knowing he is in a MUCH better place now. I love you all!

Uncle Tom, Aunt Ellen and Ryan,

You all are in my thoughts and prayers. Uncle Billy was such a wonderful person and Uncle Tom you were the best brother and he was lucky to have you in his life.

Love
Dorian
