Anoughter pillar of this area. Has moved on to his resting place. I met Bill through his sons scott n todd. Bill seemed to me like a man who was born with his working boots on. When l would stop over to see scott. Bill would welcome company. He was to me a neighbor all would apreciate. If he could help in a need. He was there. Just a few months ago bill rolled up to my place in his buggy. ( Golf Cart/ utility ). Never remember Bill doing this before. Because Bill was allways to busy around his place. I could see that the years were wearing on him. He sat and talked to me about his broken heart over his wife of so many years. So knowing that l may not see smoke coming from his wood stove on a crisp morning from my place. I will know Bill is now happy and resting with his Dear Wife....
To my cousins Wilma and Tom I send my condolences as well as to Bill’s Children and grandchildren. Bill called me about a year ago just to say hi and talk and it was fun sharing memories of the farm. My prayers are with all of you.
Bill was a wonderful man. He took such good care of my Mom. He will be truly missed. I always loved when he would drive up and see us and have a beer. Love to all his Family.
