Best Mentor I ever had. He taught me a lot and helped me believe I could do, anything I wanted. Rest in Peace Sir.

Betty, Family and employees of E B Wire Displays.



I consider it an honor to have known your husband. It is rare in this day and age to find someone with as much integrity as he had. His heart was the size of Heaven and he has now taken his place in Heaven where he has been graced with his wings and will always be by your side.



My daughter Angela met Bill only twice and that was at least 8 years ago. There has not been a year go by that she has not spoken of him fondly. She sobbed to hear of his untimely death and said she had never met a nicer man.



I think this demonstrates how your Angel has touched the lives of those he came in contact with.



He will be missed, but not forgotten.



In Gods Care you submitted him. In Gods Care your family and employees of E B Wire Displays will remain.

Dear Betty & Family:

To reiterate my expression of sympathy e-mailed to you earlier, may I just say how much I regret that there was so little time and opportunity for me to get to better know Bill. You must take great solace in having so many of his friends expressing their fondness, admiration, caring, and love. I will miss seeing him in Hilton Head.

We will always remember Bill as a kind, generous and accepting person. Even though Jamie and I were only related to Bill through marriage, he treated us as members of his family, and for that we will miss him.
