Wow! Linda I'm still spinning from the phone call you made. I sure wasn't ready for what you told me. Bill and you are and always have been Linda's and I best friends, even though we've been apart for nearly 20 years & another 20 out of the service. I guess that says lots about military camaraderie! We pray God to bring comfort, peace, and healing to you and the family. We love you, Dan & Linda

While I didn’t know Bill for a long time, you wouldn’t have known it the way he always made time to chat and catch up. A true professional, and an even better person. Bill will be sorely missed. My deepest condolences to all of his friends and family.

"What I am feeling right now is hard to put into words." I always enjoyed seeing Bill at car shows. Although I worked at Lear a few times I only remember him with his 69 at the chevelle club and car shows. He was a great guy and will be missed by all who had the change to know him.

Bill was a gentleman. His thoughtfulness, kindness and humor made him a friend. Most recently, we often talked about cars as well as our travel, past and future. Most recently we shared memories of Italy and our driving adventures on the autostrada. I will miss our morning greetings, your warm and comforting smile. My deepest sympathy and condolences to the family. God Bless you Bill.

I am so sorry for your loss. Bill was a good man, a good friend, and good to have as a co-worker. If you ever needed anything he was always there for you. He always cared for those around him and was always willing to do what ever he could to help. He was dedicated to his family, friends, and his job. (and his car) I enjoyed the time that I got to spend with him and will never forget him.
With deepest sympathy

I am so sorry for the loss of your loved one. He was a good man and never forgot to take time to say hi and talk in the hallways and meeting rooms at BFTC. I will remember the road trips with Bill on the Global programs - particularly our trip to NBAA in Orlando, Fl where bill invited his co-workers for dinner at his sister's home and then the next day he took all of us to Disney World as Peggy helped obtain passes through her longtime job at the theme park. He will be greatly missed!
With Deepest Sympathy,

My condolescenses to you Linda and your family. It is a loss to friends and family and will leave a void. He certainly left a mark that will be remembered by all. I did not know him as well as others did but it doesn't take long to recognize a good person. May he rest in peace and may God watch over you in this time of need while family and friends lend their support to you .
