Dear Simerson Family, Please accept my sincere condolences for the loss to your family. Bill was my friend and neighbor for more than 70 years and I will miss him very much. Every time I look out my window I will think of him.It looks like I won't be able physically able to attend his service and I'm so sorry that I can't but I know he would be the first to understand. As you say goodbye to him and send him to a reunion with loved ones who have gone before, know that I will be sending love...

I was saddened to learn of Willies passing. I worked with Him for many years at AC. Willie was a very good friend and a good worker. Ive thought of him often and fondly through the years. My wife and I danced to his band several times and truly enjoyed his music. Our sympathy to his family.

My prayers and love go out to the family and friends. Im so sorry for your loss. He was always so happy, every time I saw him. I always loved his laugh. He had a smile that could dry up tears, and mend a Broken heart.
I was blessed to call him Great Grandpa. God gained another beautiful soul to fill his garden.
Give Holly hugs and kisses for us in heaven.
Rest In Peace, We love you.
Love always,
Julie Towery and family
