Kathy: We were sorry to learn of Bill' passing. God has a way of helping us all through these times. Just think, Bill will never miss another shot! Oh, those days with John Burns, Guy Petrone, etc. Seems like only yesterday we were at Smitty's after BBall. Our sympathy to you and Bill's girl's. Craig and Rayma Werle

Kathy,
I was very sad to read of Bill's passing. I can never forget his positive influence on my position with Hampton Township. His politics never influenced his decisions. The residents today get to enjoy the fruits of his labor. The memories of golf tournaments, basketball games and after meeting meetings are warmly etched in my mind. I think I became a better person for having known Bill.
