Dear Family, please know that we feel your loss and trust that the good Lord will give you peace in this sad time. Bill and Bonnie were constants at family reunions and funerals in the St. Louis area. Bill, Joe and both Bonnie's were my first real connection to our Kentucky family. I'll remember Bill as always having a smile on his face. May we all see him again some day.
