I am sorry to see this. I remember Bill as he was a friend of my sister Vicky. Perhaps he and Vicky are catching up in heaven. Prayers for peace.

My heart is broke, where do I start? You're smile, your kind heart, you're many words of wisdom and encouragement you've given me. When you lived in Indiana working for the same company, we were able to share many dinners, fun times and grew so very close. I Love you Billy with all my heart. I wish you'd had more time with those grandbabies but their parents will forever keep you close. I'm so sorry for your loss Jason, Adam and Sarah. Billy was truly an awesome man that will be greatly missed by all.

Bill was a good man, who loved his family with all his heart. I am grateful to have called him "Uncle" for a time. Our entire family loved him very much. He will never be forgotten. Sending my thoughts and prayers to his wife, kids and grandkids. May his spirit watch over you as lovingly from up above as he did here on earth.
