For as long as I can remember Bill was a devoted son, brother, uncle and nephew, cousin. He set a wonderful example of loyality and devoition for each of us to follow.

My childhood, and those of my children, Cindy and Larry, hold fond, wonderful memories with Our Family ~ The Lunger Family.

May God welcome Bill to heaven! May God hold those of us who loved Bill close today and everyday!
