My prayers are with the whole family. I met Bill through my sister, his grand-daughter, Shelly. My love goes out to her during this time and always. He was a great grandfather and huge softball fan. He was at every game when he found out that I played ball. I am glad that I was able to meet him and be in his life even if it was for a short time.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I will never forget the many springs and summers I spent with Bill, Bruce, and my father Larry as they coached all of us “Outlaws” for Lake Shawnee softball. He had a great warm smile and a great since of humor. My prayers are with you all. Take care and God Bless.
