Words cannot express the loss of "little Bill". As a younger cousin I always admired him and thought he had it all. My only regret is not seeing him sooner. Our lives here on earth are so short. Rest in peace cousin, and my sympathies to his family.

Dr. Bill Biggins was a lively and optimistic man who brought joy to many people, just by his smile and personality. As a respected professional he will be sorely missed; but even more, we will miss the pleasure of his company in our lives.

I was so sad to hear my Dentist passed away, I loved his work, his kindness, making sure I felt no pain as I have receding gums. I will miss him. I did not know him for long as I just moved here 1.5 years ago and found he was the only Dentist that was reliable and extremely good with his work. A real shame to hear this. My sympathy's.
