Dear Bill, Family & Friends, My mom (Kelly), Family & Myself would like to give our deepest condolences, we are still so shocked and can’t rap our heads around that Bill has gone home with our father, he was so stubborn, we all miss him so much but we know that even though Bill has gone home with our father we know in our hearts that he will never be gone, he will be in our hearts and in everything that we do in life because we learned from him a lot. He taught a lot of us Faith, Hope, Caring, Strength, but most of all he taught us LOVE, he himself had an incredible amount of love that I never knew could happen to a person in this world, but Bill was one of a kind, no matter what a situation was bad or good, Bill was ALWAYS there lending his loving and helpful hands to those who were in need. At one time I asked him if he ever went home and rested because Bill was always at New Life or at one of the other food banks in our community lending his loving and helpful hands or he was out on the streets always lending those loving helpful hands again to the homeless, Our family has never seen someone so close to the homeless people and getting to know them by lending an ear to talk too, or helping them by giving them some of his money or even buying them things like a cold drink in the summer or a hot drink in the winter, he was the perfect one out there when we did our homeless packages for Ann Thompson our Director at New Life, My Mom and I extremely loved working with him at New Life and we will miss him not being there making coffee and helping us. Bill was a great guy, and he made an office for me to work in at New Life, he painted, he built a desk together, and he even washed the windows for me, when I saw the office I was so happy and excited and I went and told him thank you, thank you, it’s perfect, he looked at me and said that it was a special office for a special person. So Bill I will cherish that office because I truly love what you did to it to make it so special for me and my mom will still check her phone every Tuesday and Thursday just for you Bill, It’s time to rest with our father from all the hard loving work that you did here and we ALL can’t wait till we are able to see you again. Rest in Peace Bill, we ALL love you! Kelly, Maria & Family.
