Bill Breen Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Bill expressed that he is eternally grateful for his family, friends, teachers / mentors, church, and co-workers. He is proud of his service and dedication to his country.
He is thankful for the life well lived and enjoyed and the support, encouragement, friendship, love, joy, and endless banter he shared in his lifetime.
He never knew a stranger. He was truly a "salt of the earth" kind of person and will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
Gone but never forgotten, and this is see you later, not goodbye. Rest in Peace. Love you more, Ad Infinitum.
