Pat, I am profoundly sorry for your loss of Bill. I confess that he was a large part of my adult and professional life. I have laughed, cried, worked, played and prayed with him over the many years of friendship. He was the only one among us structural misfits that could cook and he often laughed at my inability to provide myself nutritional meals.

Dear Pat Am so sorry for the loss of Bill. Great neighbor and friend. Love and sympathy to you and your family. Linda and HB Lee

Pat, So sorry for you and your family's loss. May God comfort and hold you close during this time of grief.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.
