Georgie,Billy and Michelle,
I may have only met Bill a handful of times through the years, yet I feel like I knew him so well personally. The great stories you have all shared over the years of the kind, generous, loving man he was will always remain close to my heart as I know they will for all of you. I pray God comforts you at this most difficult time.
Please accept my deepest sympathy and know Bill and all of you are in my daily prayers.
Love, Kris Faiella
