We are so sorry for your family's loss. Bill was a kind man. Our cat, Maddie, often visited Bill. I know she was very fond of him. Maddie is 15 years old and is very finicky with who she will let pet her.

So sorry for your loss. Uncle Bill was always Mark's favorite Uncle whether playing as a kid or fishing together. Hold tight to all the best memories. Even his amused acceptance of me when he came to meet us camping and arrived to find me running around the campsite to avoid a bee. Sorry I can't come, but Mark is on his way driving down. Sending all my love, Alice Hayden
