Gramps,
I miss you so much! It's so hard to believe that you've been gone for 2 years. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think of you. I will see you again someday!
Love you Gramps,
Courtney

Jackie and Bernice, My thoughts and prayers are with you and all the family during this time of great sorrow. I know the pain and heartache of losing a father seems almost unbearable at times but trust in the Lord and take comfort in knowing that you will see your father again. May God grant you peace, comfort and strength.

To all--I am so sorry that I missed the visitation and funeral--I was in a meeting in Cincinnati until Wednesday. I told Mom that there are 4 men that are in my first memories as a child: Dad, Harry Young, my uncle Jimmy Woods, and Bill Jack. He used to tease and aggravate me to death! He was a wonderful man, and there are a lot of us that will miss him terribly. We all had such good times when Dad and Bill Jack worked away, and mom, Peanut, Greg, Jiggs and Cheryl Holbrook, and I would go stay with them. When I think of your entire family, I have nothing but great memories. My heart goes out to all of you.....I've been where Jackie, Bernice, David and Greg are, and it's not fun. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Please feel free to call or email me at anytime.

All of you will always be very dear to me. Even though we haven't been as close in recent years I remember all the good times we used to have. The memories of our trip to Florida over 30 years ago are still vivid in my mind. We had such a good time. My family cherished your friendship. Daddy thought so much of Billy Jack and I know he felt the same towards him. They were both very special. Please know how sorry I am and I know how very sad you must be. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you.

Peanut and family: I am so very sad to learn of Bill's early and unexpected demise. I remember the good times I had with you all when I was growing up. I would rather have been in Kentucky in the summers than in Florida because I loved you all so much. My last contact with Bill was the day you had your new camper delivered. Bill came through as I was going into Jackie's. He seemed so happy and full of life. Bill will be greatly missed by all who knew him. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your families. God Bless. I love you all very much.

Dear Ethel and family:
I have so many fond memories spent with you and Bill from my childhood days in church. I believe that Bill's life is a strong testimony that speaks to all left behind. His passing affects not only your family but our community as well. May God grant you peace in knowing that Bill now resides with the redeemed and you will see him again.
Love,
Linda Kitchen Reeves
