Carolyn, I completely understand why you loved Bill so deeply. With a smile that came straight from his generous heart, a laugh that was so contagious, and a soul that was pure Gold. I, along with his many friends and family, will miss him deeply. Memories of Christmas parties, lunches/dinners, and watching him play cards will always be cherished. God has a new Angel to watch over us.
