The Reverend William Chandler Riker Jr.

Dear Bill+

Godspeed you on your way to eternal love, from those who loved you and whom you loved who have preceded you into the next life and from those whom you loved and who loved you in this one.

We look forward to joining you when our time comes!

Love and peace,

I am deeply saddened with Father Bill´s passing. He was such a warm, loving, and giving friend and wonderful priest. He was a remarkable human being with a heart of gold. I knew him through the Stone Church in Navesink and am a better person because of him. He is greatly missed and his spirit will be with us all. My deepest condolences to Barbara. Your Bill was one of a kind .

Sending love and prayers to your family. You will forever be in our hearts at St. Benedict. Nancy

I knew Bill as a clergy colleague in the Diocese of Newark and enjoyed his generous company and his wisdom. I am sorry to hear of his death, but he leaves such a great legacy. May Bill rest in the Peace of Christ and rise in the Glory of God. Vicki McGrath (The Rev. Victoria Geer McGrath)
