Thank you all for your condolences. My Uncle and God father and his wife Audrey were my mentors and inspiration. I am proudly serving in the Armed Forces and have enjoyed an incredible career in large part because of their guidance and influence since childhood. Growing up my mother would quip that I reminded her of her brother Nelson ... this was a great compliment to me:) They both set the standard for me. May Uncle Nels and Aunt Audrey rest, finally, in peace.

SFC Bills was a real gentleman. He worked hard but always maintained his sense of humor. Nelson did great things for the NY Army National Guard and was proud to serve his community and nation. He was also very proud of his wife and her work. I am grateful to have known him.
