Dear Bill, and family,
I would close my eyes so many times and see a delightful presence of Bill and his mother sitting in the yard, or at the table, sharing glimpses of the present, or past, and knew that Bill was fully present in these cherished moments. I am sorry for the empty spaces now left as you fit your lives together without Evelyn. Sending on healing blue energy.
