Facebook Twitter GoogleJoyce and I were saddened to learn about our good friend Bill. What a nice guy/ beautiful person / loyal soldier/ best friend. Joyce and I will miss Bill and our visits with he and Maureen. Bill was surely the most selfless person and friend I ever knew. He was always interested in what you had to say and only about himself if asked. Bill’s passing left a large void in our lives and we will never forget our good friend. Gods speed Bill until we met again.

Facebook Twitter GoogleThe video was beautiful. Bill was so full of Love. He was a super hero because he loved tractors!! I know we didn’t get to see much of each other, but John and I have always treasured your friendship. I remember the fun we had at Symphony on the Prairie, business meetings we were involved in, and all the help you both gave us. I don’t think Bill knew a stranger. He always had a smile on his face and that little laugh he did. Wish we could be there to give you a big hug. Tried to send a balloon, but not sure it worked. Praying for God to give you and your family strength and comfort. Love you.
