Our deepest sympathy to Carol and Bill's daughter Stephanie. Hopefully Billy will be at peace now. We knew Billy for a lot of years but hadn't seen him recently. I spoke with my brother Rick Benson last evening and he said he had just run into Billy in August. I am glad he got to see him. They were high school friends, hung around with the same group of guys.



Sincerely-Pam
