    We became good friends with Bill many years ago when he moved next-door to us with his cat; his cat and ours became friends too.
    When he and Marcia got married we gained another friend.
    We already miss our daily conversations with him; garage-side exchanges were the highlights of our days.
    Bill, you were such a gentleman and we will not forget you.
    Rest In Peace.

    We have known our dear friends Bill and Marcia for a long time. Bonnie was friends with Marcia who she worked with. We met Bill at a party many years ago and we hit it off immediately. Since then Bill was like a brother to us,, a good friend and confidant. We loved Bill’s sense of humor as he was always quick with a corny joke. Bill loved to share a glass of wine and hearty conversation. We got to know Bill and much of his family and it was clear he was loved. Bill we will miss you but we will never forget you as you live on in Marcia.. Take care buddy till we meet again.
