I new him since childhood and was one of the first genphil customers when his dad ran it. He was always good to me and very fair. Ive been in maine and just went by the store today to buy gloves for my birthday tomorrow. Sadness is! He was one of a kind and i miss his welcoming smile and humor. Ah well .....

I am shocked to see that my good buddy passed away. We became friends from working together thru our connection at our respective jobs.
I would kiddingly say to him it was the best and longest engagement I ever had with a guy.
We always wanted to meet each other at a halfway point between Connecticut and Pennsylvania. Not to be. Bill will always live in my soul. He was special. Wish the crew at genphil had connected me.
I have the picture of him with his nephew in Florida standing by his beloved corvette.
Bill was a treasure. I use the nickname he gave me 20 plus years ago as my email address.
Loved the guy.

I managed Genphil's account at PIP and had the pleasure of working with Bill. He was a wonderful person to work with, and I looked forward to his calls. He will be missed.

While words fail to capture the pain of losing a loved one, we look forward to the time when words will fail to capture the joy of having our heavenly Father return your dear one to you.

Taken two weeks ago...we had such a nice visit with you! You will be incredibly missed! Love, Melissa & family

Bill will be missed by many of us here at Condo 3 in the Village. He and I used to meet on our way to the garages in the morning. Bill was always cheerful with a contagious smile. He was a "True" gentleman and loved by many.
