Not sure what to say?

I knew Bill from the DWC parties and group rides and he will be sadly missed. He always had a friendly smile and an easy laugh. Such a wonderful love for embracing the outdoors. My sincere condolences to his family.

I hadn't seen Bill since high school when he lived down the street from me. Seeing so many pictures of him enjoying the outdoors with friends in adulthood made me really smile in spite of being truly sad to hear of his passing. I'm happy he had a full and fun life and I send condolences to those who were lucky enough to have been part of his adulthood.

Mr. Bill, thanks for helping me with the serve and backhand. Letting me kick your butt at Backgammon!
Will be ever grateful for your friendship.

Bill helped me so much when we switched our business accounting system over to GP in 2008. He was so patient and knowledgeable. I am forever indebted to him for giving me such a good foundation on which I could build. His instruction has served me well over the years and will continue to do so. I am shocked! Please accept my deepest condolences!

Bill was my beloved cousin. My mother was his mothers oldest sister. We grew up together even though I am older than he by about 6 years. I babysat Bill, Pete, Ann, Judy and Jean on a regular basis when I was a young teen. We always had fun, even though I sometimes had to be the "bad" guy. One time babysitting, I was playing with the kids and Bill snuck off and went upstairs to his parents bathroom, where he proceeded to shave most of his eyebrows off! Why? I had no idea and didn't notice...
