Mary Anne - we know you have truly lost your lifelong sole mate. We will always remember Bill with that easy & constant smile. Barb and I always enjoyed catching up with the two of you at Lane's Christmas parties. Don't forget that you'll always be part of the Lane family. May he rest in peace.

I was sorry to hear of Bill's passing. I doubt that he knows how many people liked him. Hopefully he had some idea. With his warm smile and kind nature it was impossible not to like Bill.

Bill was the warmest, nicest person you could ever meet. I met Bill and Mary Ann at Nick's; they were wonderful to watch on the dance floor. I am very grieved and extend my sympathies to Mary Ann and all his family.

God bless and God speed, Bill.

I'm saddened to hear of Bill's passing. I knew him from dancing at Nick's. He always offered a joyous smile and a friendly hello. We always joked about the crazy dancers on the dance floor. He will be missed.
