Hugs and prayers to all of my cousins and their families. Such wonderful memories of time on the farm with Uncle Bill and Aunt Judy, picking berries, playing and running all over the farm. Years and years of meeting up at Fourth of July picnics, risotto and bingo. Uncle Bill had the best laugh and smile! He shines in the amazing legacy of kids, grandkids and great-grandkids! God bless him and his beloved wife and all their generations to come. Love, Lara

My thoughts and prayers are with all of my cousins and their families. I never got tired of visiting the Pedretti homestead throughout my life and hearing stories from my dad of growing up there. I remember one visit when my dad and I showed up, unannounced (why call ahead?), and ended up having fresh pan-fried fish for dinner with Uncle Bill and Scott; maybe the best I ever had. Bill was a great caretaker of the land, the traditions, and of course his family most of all. His memory will live on in all of us.

I met Bill when he moved into Creamery Creek Senior Living. Bill would always have a smile for me, and sometimes a nice hug for me. Forever in my heart. I will miss him

Blessings to all as you grieve the loss of Bill. I have many fond memories from growing up seeing Bill at family reunions and 4th of July picnics at St Charles in Genoa. He was so quiet and had the best laugh. I remember I learned the word "toupee" because of Uncle Bill sometime in the 80s. Much love and peace to all.
