Bill and Danny Schell were co-owners of the Hi-Boy Restaurant where I met my wife, who worked there, and so many friends who were faithful patrons of the place. Danny would be sitting on the end of the counter and Bill would be at the cash register counting the cash. So many memories of Elwood Dodrill and old Bob McMillian arguing.

This was Wendys first job and was Phylises right hand gal. So many memories of people who are all gone with Bill being the last.
Thank you Bill, for all the wonderful memories you and Danny made for Wendy and I.

Our sincerest condolences to his family.
