I am so terribly sorry I just found this out. I thought the world of your dad and I have some wonderful Bill memories. My deepest sympathy and sorrow that I was not able to be at his services.

When I moved back home from Texas, Bill sold me my home. He took his customers under his wing, making sure you were safe and taken care of. My heat went out on a very cold night. He came over to replace the fuse he knew was the problem. My move could have been very stressful, but Bill made it fun.

Bill was a wonderful person, one you were honored to meet. May you be seeing glorious things right now, until we meet again.

God bless Bill and his family
