He was my step-dad..had a heart of gold. Would do anything for anybody if he could. He was outspoken and said what he thought. He loved to play domino's and solitaire. He was an avid deer hunter and loved to fish. He had a special place in his heart for his dogs. He was definately an animal lover. Bill was a joker most of the time..got a kick out of embarassing people..lol! He will be missed by many. There will never be another man like him. He was one of a kind. Love you Bill.
May god comfort you in your time of sorrow.
May you feel God's Loving arms embrace you and your family during this difficult time and may you feel the love and prayers sent to you through your friends
