we are very saddened by this......we bought a house in Timberwood Park in 1996 from Bill. Best purchase we ever made. Bill had the forethought to position the home on the property based on views.....we didn't realize his vision but after owning the home we now know what a master builder he was. Pleasure to work with. He was on scene always during construction covered in dust and managing the construction. That was Bill! We are totally saddened by this. We saw paper today.........Colonel's Bob and Jodi Tullman USAF (ret) 104 Breeze Ridge Timberwood Park
