William Phillip Monk, age 60, passed away on his journey home, carrying with him a heart full of love, memories, and music. Born on June 15, 1964 in Scotlandwell, Kinross-shire, Scotland.

William's life was one of depth and determination. He was strong-willed, bold, brilliant, and proud-graduating college with a perfect 4.0 GPA. He loved music passionately, especially the timeless sounds of Electric Light Orchestra, the Bee Gees, The Carpenters, and ABBA. His favorite song, "Dancing Queen", brought him joy and symbolized his free spirit.
