His love for us was genuine, this is what I will always remember. He might not have talk long when he called, but he made a point to call every now and then just to say hello. He was a sweet soul, life only gave us a few moments but those moments I will cherish for the rest of my days. Rest well Uncle Bill...until we meet again.

There was much I didn't know about Bill that his history mentioned but I do remember his work ethic and he was a loyal friend. I also know he loved his daughters and his grandchildren. He left a great legacy and will greatly be missed but also remembered .

Although miles, years, and death have separated the first cousins on the Robertson side of the family, I have fond memories spent with Billy Dewayne at our family gatherings and reunions. Bill was always such a happy, smiling, upbeat guy and fun to be around. My dad -- Bill's uncle Flay Robertson-- was a barber. He kept in touch and visited Bill many times at the barber supplies where Bill worked in Little Rock. How remarkable that Bill's obituary picture favors so much that of our grandfather, Charles Newton Robertson, who lived to be 91. My thoughts and prayers are with you as you say good-bye to your loved one.
