Uncle Bill, I will miss you so very much. I will always remember how much fun we all had when you would goof around with me and the boys and I will never forget Tony Fudgakaloop. You are a wonderful man and will always be in my heart forever and ever. I know that Aunt Carol, Janis, Audrey and Mike will all miss you but they will always have good memories of you close to their hearts. My Dad, along with my Mom will miss you very, very much. Thank You so much for sharing your life with my family.
I love you Uncle Bill
