Dolly and family,
We were privileged to know your family and always looked forward to our October reunion at the beach. Bill will be missed by all of us, especially his big smile and sense of humor. Great memories and trust that you will find comfort in the love we have for you and your precious family. God bless and keep you through His unlimited Love.

Bob,
I wish I could express how sorry I am for you and your family during this difficult time. I believe the measure of a father can be taken in the quality of the son. If that's the case you father is a hall of famer who raised this family the right way. You should be proud of the fact you honor your father every day with the strength of your character. Knowing you as I do I'm sure that I can say " if love could have saved him, he would have lived forever".

So sorry for your loss. Your family is in my thoughts. It's a very long goodbye and now it's finally time to mourn, celebrate his life, and have yours back. I met him a few times in the pool during some fun parties. He had as much fun as we did. RIP

"Willie" was a great man. He never missed one of our hockey games growing up and was always fun to be around. I am very grateful that I had the opportunity two weeks ago to spend an hour with him discussing old times with him and Bobby. He was always special to our family and will be dearly missed.

I'm very sorry for your loss. I have such good memories of Mr. Davis while growing up. He always had a knack to know what to say and how to say it when giving advice. He was a fun guy to hang around with. And I will always remember him with a golf bag over his shoulder. He loved the game.
