Mr. Bill was one of my favorite men that came to the Opportunities, Inc. Senior Citizen Center in Borger, Texas to play dominoes and eat lunch. He would always get into our candy bowl, which we had a thing about him eating the candy. He would rattle the bowl for me to say something. So sorry for your loss.
