Our deepest sympathy to Marge, her 3 sons and the rest of Bills family. He was a nice neighbor, loved his dogs and loved to feed the birds. He and his family did fantastic Christmas decorations for all the neighborhood to enjoy. He will be missed but not forgotten. Fondly, Caroline and Wells Perkins
