Marilyn, I am sorry to learn of Bill's death. I knew him through the years when we both worked for The Independent, 1969 until his retirement. He was a good man and well thought of at the paper. I'm sorry for your loss.

To the Wellman family Charlie and I were saddened to read of Bill's passing. He was a fine person and we will miss him very much. We all had a great time at the last Class of '48 party. We are in Charleston,S.C visiting our children. We regret that we cannot attend his services. Our deepest sympathy Mary K. and Charles Wheeler

Dear Marilyn, I was your neighbor for many years, I shall never have friends like Bill and you. He had high regares for every one he met and you were always at his right hand, in his heart and life. What great memories you have of doing everything together. You were his life here and now he is in his Heavenly Home waiting for you. Go on with your life and make him proud and met him one of these days. I am just a phone call away if you ever want to talk or need anything. I will always remember how he made coffee each week for the Garbage Men and how he looked after CA for me and how he never told me who cut my grass after CA died. What a Friend we have in Jesus, What a friend we have in Bill. Love, Carol Gray,Ocala FL
