To a wonderful DADDY that i will always love..I miss you so much and you will always be in my heart everyday.
Terry & Steve,
Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. We are always just a phone call away! May Bill rest in peace.
One of my fondest memories of “Uncle” Bill was catching him taking a nap in his wheelbarrow, his dog, Deek, nearby. His gardens were always works of art. He had a green thumb and worked endlessly in them, and was generous sharing the results.
“Uncle” Bill always had a good story ready—how he fell off the roof while shingling or how he responded to a phone call from a telemarketer—always told with plenty of laughter and plenty of colorful language.
I will greatly miss this man who had a deep and abiding love of his country, his gun, and his dog.
