It´s 2023 and I still have such great memories of Bill.I remember Bill being the greatest neighbour you could ask for . How many times did he help my parents when my dad was sick or if you had problem with the car .Always shovelled the driveways of the elderly.And you always felt safe when knowing he was in the neighbourhood.He was like wise Wilson from home improvement just over the fence with some good advice or a story to tell. True legend

I am in shock and disbelief. I can't believe Bill is gone. We used to hang out some in high school and then we ran into each other again when our kids went to elementary school. I remember we would stand out side of the school where our kids went and have many conversations about life in general. Bill was a great guy and I am saddened to hear he is no longer with us. My thoughts and prayers go out to all his family.

I just heard the news today and sadness doesn't begin to explain my feelings. I met Bill back in high School.... we didn't start off as friends but I guess after we both got over our posturing, respect and a wonderful friendship evolved that lasted for over thirty years. Such a good man with a big heart. We would only run into each other maybe once a year but we carried on many a phone conversation discussing the mysteries of women, children, parents and even our own actions and behaviors. Would joke about some of the things we did as young adults and swear we'd kick our kids behinds if they dared try the same stunts. I am saddened by his passing but my heart smiles as I remember him. My heart and prayers go out to all of the family and God bless you Bill.... love ya brother!
