Very sorry for your loss. I worked with Bill for a year on the tug HMS Liberty. Conversations with him were all about spending time with his family.

We are truly heart broken at the senseless loss of our nephew. I was there when he was born and one of the first to hold him. I take comfort in knowing that his parents, grandparents and Uncle Jack are comforting him and welcoming him into heaven with much love. Aunt Barbara Peake Shever

Linda and the Richardson family,
Our deepest sympathy goes out to your family. I can't imagine the emotions you have right now, but please know prayers are being sent. Billy was such a pleasant guy to talk to and joke around with. We have some fun memories of shooting archery and the conversations afterwards. Rest Easy Billy!

My deepest sympathy to this wonderful family that lost this great man, husband, father, brother and friend way too soon. We were only friends for a couple years but Bill and Linda welcomed me and my kids into their lives and home like we had known each other a lifetime. Our time spent together may not have been that long, but the wonderful and amazing memories and friendships made over the past couple years will last a forever. Thank you for everything. Our love, thoughts and prayers are with the entire family.
