Dear Aunt Linda and Cousin Brent,
I love you both. I'm so sorry for you loss. Uncle Bill was a wonderful man and a great Uncle. Your visits to California are always remembered with fondness. My girls remember Uncle Bill as funny, and smart (brilliant) and happy. He enriched our lives just by being in them. He is greatly missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with you,

Linda,

I am very sorry to hear of Bill's passing. He was an important mentor during my days at SMC. I have the fondest memories of the trip to Paris and the numerous conversations in Bill's office. May he rest in the comfort of God's hand. '82

Dear Aunt Linda and Cousin Brent,

We are so sorry for your loss but yet so fortunate to have known Uncle Bill. He was a wonderful hero to many of us. Our thoughts and prayers are with you from El Paso, Texas. Kathy Chapin Cox and Mary Ann Cox and Sam Cox who is in Glacier National Park. All our Love.

Dear Linda,
I was so saddened to read of Bill's passing and know that everyone who knew Bill feels the loss as well. Such a talented, genuine, dedicated guy and a snappy dresser, too! We all will continue to hold this image in our mind. Certainly the love and affection of many friends will be with you during this most difficult time.

Linda, so sorry to hear of your loss. Bill was a wonderful man and great, fun neighbor always ready with a smile, joke and wit. He will be very missed. Let us know if you need any help with anything.

Dear Linda and Brent
We were so sorry to hear of Bills' passing. Our sympathies and prayers are with you both. Many times my mom reminisces of the four you and now I'm sure Bill and my dad are smiling down on us all.

Linda, I was very saddened to hear of Bill's death. He was a fine man with an ever-present smile and positive outlook on life. He will be missed. My best to you and your family.

I will always remember Bill's masterful performances each year as moderator at Colchester's Town Meeting Day. He moved the meetings forward with wit, grace, and a wonderful sense of humor.

Dear Linda,
I was so saddened to learn of Bill's passing. There is hardly a childhood and, particularly, high school memory that does not include Bill. Although we did not keep in touch over the years, I have always considered him a special friend. My thoughts are with you and the family. Virginia Moore McMillan

Dearest Linda, I am so sorry to know that Bill passed away. John and I loved you both so very much. As you might remember, Bill performed our wedding ceremony in our home on October 13th, 1997. Then, performed a wedding ceremony for my daughter, Belinda, and the love of her life, David in 2003.
Linda, I know what you are experiencing. Please rely on your circle of friends to help you through this.

Dear Linda and Brent,
I am sorry to hear that Bill has passed away. Bill was a wonderful person - full of life and always smiling! He will be truly missed! My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Linda and Brent,
Bill is remembered with fondness in so many different ways. He was a true gentleman, well-mannered and so hospitable. There was not an event at your home that Bill was not the perfect host!
How fortunate The Saint Michael's community was to have such a scholar as Dr. Garrett. A brilliant mind and a dedicated professor are surely apt descriptors of Bill's academic career.
Bill fought bravely right to the very end. His courage is a lesson for all of us.
Our heartfelt sympathy to the family and friends of Bill,
Donna and Marty

Dear Linda, My hearfelt condolences go out to you at this time. Winifred Lynde
