So sorry to hear about this Huge Loss. Bill was an incredibly friendly and knowledgeable individual I enjoyed seeing at Stoneham Ford every oil change for the past 16+ years! He certainly was an asset to that organization and I'm sure he was a bright light in your family!

I knew him for 20 years from Stoneham Ford. Great guy we had many great conversations, I just found out today and I'm very sad will miss him.

As one satisfied customer at the Stoneham Ford Quick Lane for many years, I was shocked and saddened when I went there last Friday for service and learned of Bill’s passing. My heart goes out to Bill’s family, friends, coworkers, and customers at this tragic time. He will be missed.

Bill was the go-to guy in the long ago early days of Danvers Cable television. He brought technical skill, town interest, patience and good humor to what seemed like endless hours of meetings. I am grateful for all the help he gave me and his generosity of spirit. Everyone who worked with him will miss him.

My deepest condolences to Billy's family. I worked with Billy at Stoneham Ford for 9 years and will always remember how kind and friendly he was. He would keep us laughing when we were having a rough day. Even after I retired from Stoneham, Chris and I met Billy for lunch and he would tell us stories about his family and funny things that happened at work! He always brightened up my day! I will miss him as I'm sure many people will! Cheryl, cherish the memories you and Billy had together with your family. I know this is an extremely difficult time. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Billy was the best!

To All who leave their mark here, I'd like to thank you for your friendship/relationship/Love. My husband was always a "giver" in remarkably many ways. He has, I'm sure, touched you so I challenge you all to be like him to the best of your ability. Give what ever you can (LOVE, money, hugs or just a smile) to those in need around you. "That's what Bill would do" Thank You - Cheryl

So sad to learn of Bill’s passing. Such a friendly, kind, hardworking, generous man. Salt-of-the-earth, old-school type of guy who would give you the shirt off his back if you were in need.
I will greatly miss our chats as we were out and about in the neighborhood - either walking our dogs or working in our yards or driveways. I’d like to think that Bill’s been reunited with his pal Bourbon, and they’re taking a leisurely stroll, catching a breeze, enjoying each other’s company.
My heartfelt condolences to Bill’s family and friends. May your many happy memories sustain you during this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Kevin O’Donnell and family
