Pat,
Linda and I were deeply saddened to learn of Bill's death and send you our deepest sympathy. We have many good memories of our times together. Bill was a faithful member of First Presbyterian serving as a deacon and so loyal at taping the Sunday service for many years. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. May God's comfort and strength be with you.
