As Bill's hairdresser for the past 9 years I can say he was one of my clients that brought a smile to my face every 4 weeks. He loved and talked about his granchildren everytime I saw him. I will miss him so much, but I do know he is with the Lord without pain in a much better place. Thank You Terri and Heather for giving me the opportunity to come by Monday. It was hard but meant so much to me. Please keep in touch and let me know if there is anything I can do for you.
Love Always, Michele

Dear Teri, Heather, and Jeff,
I want to send my deepest sympathies to you and your family. Bill gave me my first job delivering newspapers. I have always had the deepest respect for him. I will always hold my memories of being a part of your family close to me.

Teri and family, I am so sorry to hear of Bill's passing. I just saw you and Bill a few months ago at Kenny and Linda's and you were so full of life that it is so hard for me to comprhend that this has happened so fast. However, eight years ago I was where you are now. Just take one day at a time and know that he is with you in spirit always. I love you and my thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love,
Georgia Ann
