Bill was a very close friend of mine, who will be missed. I am in shock, as I had just seen him on Friday, 1/26, and he was smiling, laughing and thoroughly enjoying life. He always had kind words to say to everyone, and all loved him. His wonderful smile was infectious, and he had the best outlook on life. May his soul be at rest with his maker above. I was one of the lucky people to have spent time with him on earth. Until we meet again in Heaven Bill.
My sincerest condolences and prayers to his mother, twin sister & brother, and family and friends. May you find strenghth, with the help of God, to get through this, and remember the wonderful times over the years with him.
Take comfort with knowing that he is at peace with his loving father, Albert, in God’s kingdom. Karen
May all of Bill’s friends pass on to others his example of love, joy of life and his beautiful heart.
To his family , God will be with you every step of the way of this journey of loss of such a beautiful spirit. Love and prayers, Ruth James
Heard the news from Bill’s brother Mike one day after and I still couldn’t believe it. I knew Bill not too long ago from work. He will be missed. My condolences to the family and may God give you strength and comfort during this time of grief. – Sherina
