It seems like just yesterday, I was hanging out with William on my yearly trip to St. Petersburg.
He is sorely missed.

Time heals all things they say; but it will never let me forget my dear friend William (aka Gum). He is missed every day, and I will miss our conversations on my yearly trips to Saint Petersburg. That being said, I met a brother Mason at the Masonic Grand Session in Palm Springs Ca this past July....and this brother was the splitting image of Gum!! To the point I had to ask him his name and where he was from....because he could have been his twin because of the likeness!!! Rest in eternal peace my brother, and we will met up on the other side one, because we all have expiration dates

Bill, my friend, brother, and co-worker. The memories that were created in our youth are so precious. The deep intellectual discussions we'd have and moments of laughter where we could not even catch our breath. My mother and father accepted you as just another son to love. You will be missed,but never forgotten my friend. Love you man...

May God bless the family of one of my dearest friends during this period of loss. I will truly miss our talks about so many things from politics, sports, religion and current events. He was always informed. We always found something to laugh about, gonna miss that!

Bill was kind, friendly and funny. He would come to the dog park with his dog, Alex and always had a funny story to tell. I miss him. What a great guy. He will be missed. Darlene and King
