So sorry Arlene! We love you and want you to know that we care! We'll miss Bill and his antics! Known around as the "Crying Dutchman" he was certainly very good at what he loved.... Auctioneering.
His stories and jokes were always the highlight of any kind of gathering.
~Safe in the arms of Jesus,
safe on His gentle breast,
there by His love o´ershaded,
sweetly my soul shall rest.~
