What I remember most about my uncle Bill was his generosity. I lived with him and my aunt one summer when I was 13. It was a summer I will never forget.

William Olaf Danielson truly is the definition of 'a character'. He always had a smile, a joke or a story and enjoyed making you laugh. His life stories are memorable and he told them with true joy and humor. I enjoyed working with Bill and I will miss him. God Bless.

Bill will always be My Most Memorable Character. With that white handlebar mustache, Bill was bigger than life! He was gregarious, loved people, always had a joke or tall tale to tell: he enjoyed his wine, Mosie, and his dogs. He was a terrific friend and boss. I will miss him very much. Linda Herndon
