The Williams family will always remember their strong friendship, now lifelong, with the Vesey family, particularly now that William has showed us the real value of such relationships. He was a gentleman. We have his wife and children in our thoughts and prayers.

My deepest sympathy to Bill's family.
I have been a friend and business associate of Bill's for many years. I will always remember the laughter. He was such a kind man even when he beat me at golf he didn't rub my nose it it !
I will miss him.
My Thoughts and Prayers are with you.

MaryFran, Alicia, Ben and Amanda,
So sad to hear of the passing of William. For such a beautiful family to lose the husband and father at such a young age is so difficult. He certainly had the love and care of all of you. Play golf and ski in heaven Bill.
