Bill was a wonderful man and was a great husband and father. He brought happiness to his wife Shirley and it was apparent in her smile that she loved him dearly. When his family visits places he loved, I hope they remember the good times they had with him. Our deepest sympathies go out to the family. He may be gone but never forgotten.

It broke our hearts to lose you but you did not go alone. As a part of us went with you the day God took you home. If tears could build a staircase and heartache make a lane, we'd walk our way to heaven and bring you back again. In life we loved you dearly and in death we love you still, in our hearts you hold a place no one could ever fill. We love you dad and you are truly missed. You are the best Husband, Dad and Grandpa anyone could ask for. Please watch over Kyle and Justin and guide them through their life's journeys. I love you daddy.

I know you will always be with us, protecting us and watching over us but my soul is still with you in that room. You will always be my super hero and I'm never gonna let you go. I love and miss you deep down to my core!! I know your at peace but sorry I'm not.. I love you to heaven and back, always and forever, your little girl.
