Bill and I corresponded over a number of years after his friend Dan Callahan passed away. A survivor of the Battle of the Bulge, saved by feet frozen by the cold ground of the Ardennes, I had hoped he would pass age 100. He had a wonderful sense of humor. I will miss my pen pal.

Bill-- I remember you as a good and kind friend to my mother, Nelda Miller, who knew you from your work at Heinold Hog Markets. I'm sure many others knew you better than I did, but I'm sure we all remember your kindness and valued your friendship, as she did. Rest in Peace.

Uncle Bill, We will always treasure the times we had with you when we were kids. You were so patient with us and never said "no." The Sundays making hot chocolate at your office and then going to Burger King. You always had tapioca at your house and I remember making tapioca with you. We will forever remember you.
Love,
Margaret, Christina, Andrew and Michelle
