I was so sorry to read your husband and father's death in the paper. I can still remember all the times you came to our house when we were young. I thought of your family often over the years, especially when I was taking my youngest son to the fair as I was passing your house. May you know that you are in our thoughts and prayers during this time.

Barb and Family,
Our thoughts and prayers have been with all of you these last few months. You and Bill were there for us so much the last few years. We will miss our getting together each time we were home and Bill and Joe's endless phone calls. We will always remember his smiling, friendly face.

Barb and Family,

I am so sorry to hear about Bill. You know he was one of my favorite people. I will never forget all the good times that we had especially those ones at Safeway. I know Bill is with my Mom and Granny now. They will take good care of him.

Will miss talking with the both of you as you walked either in front of or in the back of our home on Willis street. From the time of Kathy babysitting Tom and Kristin to our conversations while you were on your way to Hienz's Bakery, you have always been in our lives, and I hope that for you Barbara that will continue. You will continue to be in our prayers so that God will give you, as well as the rest of your family, the strength in the days to come.

Barb, and children,
Joel and I are so sad to read about Bill's death. We have so many amazing memories of fun times with the whole family. Know that our prayers are with you right now and that we love you! Joel will never forget your kindness to him at many times of his life when he was missing his father. Bill stepped right in to fill those shoes many times - the biggest one was when Joel left for college and you all took him out to Findlay, Ohio. We will never forget Bill's sense of humor and laughter! Joel and Kay

The years have passed so quickly, but the fond memories of your grace and willingness to be who God made you to be will linger in my heart.
Barbara, Butch & Kathy and families,
May the love of family and friends comfort you;
May the love of God surround you with peace and love.
God's grace and peace,

Mr.Bill, I will miss your pleasant "hello's" when you and Ms.Barb used to take your walks around Westminster. I hadn't seen you in awhile and hoped that it was just the cold weather keeping you away. Now I know you will walking where it is always beautiful.
Ms. Barb, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Even though Mr. Bill will not be physically beside you, he will always be with you. May God bless you and your family.
