Dear Yorkery family, There was something quintessentially joyous about Bill whose presence whether on the football team at Hope, or at our Reunions was always that of a true gentleman. He will be missed, and my thoughts and prayers are with you.
December 17, 2012
Please accept my sincerest condolences. While I haven't seen Bill in many years, I always remember him as a wonderful guy. I am long-time friend of Barry Bellino, who told me about Bill's health problems in recent years. I met Bill through Barry and remember with fondness those days when wa bunch of us would watch NY Giants football games at the Wedgewood and later at the Golden Tap. Bill was always in good humor, generous and a really nice guy. I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers.
