Elsa and the entire Pake family: On behalf of all the Brother Knights of the Monsignor James R. Jones Council 3303, we send our love and prayers. Bill did so much for the Knights as our Grand Knight, Faithful Navigator, Color Corps Commander, Ceremonial Team Leader, and a Knight who just gave so much. We have sustained the loss of an exemplary Catholic gentleman and a worthy Knight of Columbus. May God rest his soul.
