My deepest sympathy to Bill's family. He was a fellow member of IBEW 8. Bill was always first class and always made the job fun!

Our prayers are with the family. The lord comes for us all at some point, but he doesn't make it easy for the remaining to cope. That is where family comes in.

So sorry to hear of Bill´s passing. He was received by his Lord and welcomed by all the family waiting for him on the other side. There will come a day when your tears will be replaced by smiles when you think of him until everybody is together again
