Not sure what to say?

I sadly miss Bill. He was a nice man, who loved sharing his opinion on people, our church and especially Football and Basketball (mostly Big Ten or AFC North or Youngstown State, all up his alley based on his Ohio blue collar, rust belt roots). Talking to him and learning from him really brought you back to classic old fashioned America. I am blessed to know him and I miss sitting next to him at Deacon meetings.

Dear Dorie, Susan and Brian, We send our sincere condolences to Bill's dear family. We have e-mailed for several years and looked forward to hearing from him regarding his family and all of our classmates.His consoling words at times when needed were appreciated. He kept us all together. His kindness will be with us always. With love, Ed and Arlene (Beardsley) Hargate

My father and Bill were the best of friends growing up and beyond. Growing up, I heard some of the greatest stories from my Dad about his times with Bill and all the Eagles. I wish to express my deepest sympathy to the Williams family.
Sincerely,
Mary & Patrick Fey, Dan McCormick's daughter & Son-in-Law.

I worked with Bill at VQI and we became good friends. Bill loved sports and he even gave himself a nick-name. "BGB" (Big Game Bill). We both loved March Madness, and always bet on who would be the NCAA Champs. I will think of BGB every March and it just won't be the same without him.

Dear Dory, Susan , Brian and Family, Our deepest sympathy to you. Bill has been my friend since seventh grade. He has been our connection to our classmates, no matter where they lived. He kept us in touch with each other. He did so much for our son Jimmy during his illness and at the time of his death. He put the word out and we received over forty cards from classmates. We all miss him and will continue to miss him forever.May his soul and the soul of the faithfull departed rest in peace....

Dear Doris, Mason and I will remember Bill for being our wonderful Host at the family gatherings you both put together. It seems that you certainly did find the perfect fellow.You were blessed to have many memorable years with him. Bless you and your family. Love Mason and Emily Cannon

God's care and peace to this fine man and his wonderful family from a friend who remembers many happy times. Warmest regards...John H Bell

We loved Bill, will miss his messages to the Eagles. I am so sorry Doris we will try and keep in touch. Love Bob and Kathy Pavick

Doris - Liz and I send our sincere condolences. My Mother, Barbara, loved her "cousin Bill" and I have enjoyed the email contact I have had with him over the past few years. You were blessed with many fine years of togetherness with Bill. He was one of Warren's finest alumni and will be sorely missed by many. He was always proud of his Warren heritage, as am I, and he was a great ambassador for the qualities and character instilled in him there. Please know that our thoughts are with...
