To Shelia, Pam, Helen, and other Family Members:
We are deeply saddened by Billy's passing and would like to express our most heartfelt sympathy. We knew him from a very early age in relation to his parents and grandparents and then later in life with his wife and children. He has always been family with us and we will forever cherish his memory. He will be missed especially at Thanksgiving time because this was when we all came together to rejoice and celebrate our sacred family roots. He will still be with us in spirit.

Sheila, family and friends. Bill has been a friend of mine for 25 years. He will truly be missed by all. Whenever my old house was falling apart he was the one I could count on to help put it back together again. I as well as others have lost a true friend. Sheila, may God who calls our dear ones home and grants them peace and rest, give you and your family the strength and faith to say that He indeed knows best. Peace.
