Doug, Jan and families,
The circle of life is inevitable. As neighbors we have enjoyed watching Bill riding his mower and knowing he was a wonderful guy. Attending Hempfield together and then employed by Elliott and keeping in touch from time to time kept an unspoken bond.
He is being remembered.

Joyce has kept us updated about Bill since he was first diagnosed, so that we could keep him and you in our prayers. Please know that you will continue to be in our thoughts and prayers.
Sincerely,
