William & Helen

To Sarah and Willy's family: My sincere condolences/sympathy and prayers. May God comfort you with peace and strengthen you with that hope of seeing him again. Meanwhile, may your many good memories of him help to sustain you.

Willy was a wonderful man, and very pleasant. He always had something positive to say that made me feel beautiful and valued.

For some years he was a neighbor of my elderly Mother and oldest sister on Bourbon Ave. He was a wonderful neighbor and friend, constantly checking on them, sometimes providing snacks or sharing special foods he'd cooked, etc. Shortly after I moved back here, he gave me a large floor glass container that I still have and use.

Rest in Peace, Willy!

My deepest sympathy to the family and friends of William Bowles. God understands the comfort that we need when we lose a loved one. May you confide in Him always because "His understanding is beyond measure." (Psalm 147:5)
