Not sure what to say?

I was so shocked to read this. I just spoke with him a month before he passed and we were going to get together. My heart is aching. Thinking & prayers for his family. We all grew up together in BPC & have stayed in touch. Love , peggy

Very sad to hear this. Thinking of his family and wishing them all well.

Mr. Wagner was one of the best bosses I ever had. He was always there to help when needed & if it was not for him encouraging me to finish my education later in life I would have never have thought to finish my bachelors degree at Elms College. Thank you Mr. Wagner. Rest In Peace. You will be truly missed. Condolences to the Wagner family. May all the love from family & friends help you during this difficult time. God bless

To Josh & Jim, so sorry about your Dad, he was a great guy, remembering those school days at St. Thomas, and then in soccor at the High School. May God give you both peace, to remember him with love.

I remember being friends with Bill back to when I first moved to Ma. to work at Third National Bank. We served on the Board of the American Institute of Banking in the early 80's, Trustees of the WS Boys and Girls club and other community activities. He" gave back to the community" more than any one I knew and he was still a bank President. He will be missed by all. Condolences to his family. Bob B

Karen,
David and I were so saddened to learn about Bill’s passing. He was a consummate community banker and always very supportive of each of us as we pursued our careers in the banking industry. We remember how proud he was of Abigail and Lillian and their equestrian accomplishments. They were about the same age as our daughter, so we loved to talk about how wonderful it was to have such treasures in our lives. We were lucky to know him. Our hearts go out to you and your family.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. I heard about all of Bill´s heartfelt efforts to help charities and the community . Thank You for being there for Brightside in Holyoke which I hold close to my heart . Dan

Sorry to hear about Bill he was a great person who likes to take a moment to chat with you always so nice and very friendly he would always put a smile on your face even when you are in a bad mood. Even though he doesn't always come's in my lane he made a point to say hi to me at my work. I always say keep him in your heart and mind he will never be forgotten he'll be there always. He will be missed rest in peace my fiend.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Karen and the entire Wagner family. From early grade school through these many years Bill was a loyal and true friend always ready to help and cement a lasting friendship. His value to the community and the many organizations he gave unselfishly to will be missed.
Rest in Peace old friend.
Bill and Cindy Bourque
