Bill always had a friendly smile and time to chat when we saw him at the neighborhood Stop&Shop. We are deeply saddened to learn of Bill's passing and extend our condolences and sympathy to his family and friends at this sad and difficult time.

I knew Bill my entire life. He lived next to my parents when I was born. I always enjoyed seeing him picking up Helen from work.
Always had a smile when he saw me. He was a very nice man and always remembered me at Christmas time with a card. May he rest in peace. My condolences go out to the family.
