Katie-
I am deeply saddended by Bill's passing. He was there for me over the last 10 years more times than I can count. He was a friend, mentor, Patriot, and a great American. He was there for me on my wedding day, and kept my spirits high when I was sick. I am sorry for your loss.

Katie,
I was deeply sorrowed when hearing of Bills passing. I served with Bill when he first came to Hunter. Bill was a caring individual who put forth his full effort in everything he did. He was able to maintain his “Get it done right” philosophy while still remaining flexible to change. He was not a man who let things happen, he was a man who made things happen. It was my pleasure and honor to serve with such a man. He was a great American.

Katie,
We just heard about Bill last evening and are so very sorry. He was a great neighbor. If you need us for anything, we are right across the street.

Katie, no words can express how sorry I am to hear about the loss of Bill. Knowing him these past 15 years has been a pleasure. His personality, humor, readiness to help anyone out at anytime, his love of life, and love for you will forever be an inspiration. I truly regret not keeping closer ties after retiring from the Army. It was always a pleasure seeing you guys out at Cancun and around Wilmington Island. I will forever miss his "What's up brotherman" and friendly hug. Katie, if we can help with anything, please never hesitate to ask. Our hearts, prayers and deepest condolences go out to you at this time.

Katie,
I was shocked when I heard the news about Bill at church yesterday. It was so long ago that we were neighbors on Queen Anne Ct. but it seems like it was yesterday. Bill is one of the nicest, most charming men I ever met. I am so, so sorry, Katie! I'll see you soon.

Katie,
We were so shocked to hear about Billy. He was a great person. No words can take away your pain. Just know you are in our prayers.
October 5, 2009
Katie- We were so distraught to hear of Bill's sudden passing. From the time we met, his ready smile and genuine laugh were the first things we noticed about Bill. We loved his wonderful, funny stories. (I always told him that he should write a book.) Remember how long we would sit at the old pizza place before it closed? We talked and laughed for hours.
Bill was always there with an extra hand or a word of encouragement to help anyone in need- family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, fellow Masons and Shriners, even strangers. He loved riding his motorcycle in the parades and the charity rides, didn't he?
God blessed us for having known Bill. We loved him and will miss him so much.
