My thoughts and prayers go out to Bill's family. I worked with Billy as well as his father, Bill Sr. over 20 years ago at Celebration Station and then at Bill's Flea Mkt. in the old Nolan Plumbing bldg. on Va. Beach Blvd. He was always such a sweet young man. I am sure that he will be missed by many. For all his family and friends, Please know that he will be remembered in our hearts forever!

I would like to express my deepest condolences to the entire family, I only met Bill a couple of weeks ago and was very much looking forward to working with him at his new location...
I guess God has other plans for him and we can only pray, that he is now helping the angels set up shoppe...

May God be with you!
