OMGOSH Billy I had no idea, I just found out about 20 minutes ago from a friend Vicky. I have so many stories of the times we had and with your boys. They were great times. I know your family misses you terribly, but it´s been a year for them already and just a couple a half hour for me. You were a good dad to your boys. You showed them love understanding and the hard facts of life. I will be praying for your family Bill, and for Rest In Peace my friend. Hope to see you on the other side.
