Aunt Barbara and Family,
Our hearts and prayers go out to each of you in your time of loss. Uncle Bill was a very funny, loving and giving man. He genuinely cared about everyone and he had an ability to make you feel like you were the most important person in the room. His smile and laughter was contagious to everyone around him. He was an amazing man! He will be forever missed. We want you to know that we love you and if there is anything we can do to help, let us know.
