I would like to express my deepest sympathy for your loss. I pray that the God of all comfort grant you peace at this time. We find one of his promises in John 6:40, of the hope to see our loved ones again. He will comfort your heart and give you peace, strength, and hope in the days ahead.

Condolences to LuAnna and family. Bill was a great railroader and mentor. Bill hired me as a train dispatcher in Battle Creek Michigan. Rest in everlasting peace.
