Bill was like a brother to me. Always thoughtful and caring. Always made me feel like family, as all the Hodgson clan has. There was nothing better than sitting around a campfire in moose camp, beer in hand, and listening to Bill tell a funny story. He was always willing to share his knowledge and experience he had accumulated over his years. You have given me many memories over the years, memories I will now cherish. RIP Bill.

Bill was a wonderful Big brother to all 10 of us and took the roll of being the head of the family very seriously and with grace! He even wanted to appoint the next General (as Larry said) before he left us but there is no replacing Bill. He will be with us forever and we all know to behave now because he will be watching over us!! Thank you Marg for taking such good care of Bill. You are amazing and as Bill told me, He had the BEST! We will always be here for you Marg! Love forever Bill and Barb
