Dear Carmen and Marina,
I will always hold all the treasured memories of my childhood close to my heart because Bill was a huge part of those memories, and what made them so special. What I will treasure the most is the name he always called me,"Lindy Lou". What popped into my head when I first heard of Bill's passing was the rings he would make out of peach pits when Marina and I were little and we still lived in Plainfield. Also the straw type thing he would give us to put into oranges so we can suck the juice out....and who can forget those camping trips..the one especially to Crystal Cave...great memories!!!
I love you both very much and I loved Bill with all my heart. I will miss him everyday and what makes me happy is that he now joins my parents in heaven and I am sure they are having a WONDERFUL reunion!!!
My most sincere and deepest sympathies to you both and to his extended family.
Love,
"Lindy Lou"
