We are so very sorry to hear of your loss. Bobby and I met the Knorr's on one of our camping trips to Florida and have stayed in touch. So many good memories of Bill. The world has lost a wonderful, caring person. Our sympathies to Eleanor and family.

I am so sorry for your loss. I know there are no words to describe the feeling of losing a loved one, especially a parent. Please know you are all in my thoughts.

We will forever cherish the fun times we had camping with you both, and the purely joyful surprise of our paths crossing in Gulf Shores, AL. Loved Bill’s humor, eliciting an occasional eye roll from Eleanor, and his many funny stories. Rest In Peace Bill, you were loved by many and will be missed by all. Our deepest condolences to Eleanor, your children, and grandchildren.
