Donna, My name is Ray Schroll. Bill and I had many fun nights cruising Eldorado street. I went to see him in the hospital when he had his accident. I moved to Pennsylvania in 1977 and lost contact with Bill. May God grant you peace as you mourn the loss of Bill.

It has been quite a while since we have seen Bill and Donna too. I remember how nice it was to get to share conversations and time with them. He is blessed to be in a much better place now.
