With sympathy and with many good memories. The photo seems to capture his spirit and pleasant smile so well. Bill always tried to be - and make - a positive difference across Lake County. We are all blessed in his life, his work and the family he and Nancy nurtured as an ongoing legacy.

Dear Bill and Lisa,
We are so sorry to hear of your loss.
It's been such a long time and just the other night, we were talking about playing monopoly with your Dad (he was so good) and going out on the sailboat.
Like I said, a long time ago.
Our thoughts are with you and your family at this sad time.

I'll always remember the career opportunity that he extended to me at Lakeland Newspapers. My prayers are with you during this very difficult holiday season. God bless.
