All of us at Taylor Town Hall will miss Mr. Bill! He was always a gentleman when he came into the office, usually to purchase money orders or postage. He knew exactly how much he was buying, the cost of each item, and if we made a mistake figuring, he was quick to let us know. We enjoyed his visits, loved his stories, and he had a great laugh. He had good friends who always drove him to Town Hall, and waited while we carried on business with Mr. Bigbee. We will miss your visits at Town Hall, Mr. Bill. Sincerely, Leslie, Judy, Lu, and Barbara.
