I am greatful for having Bill as a neighbor across the street for 15 years. We had many talks about racing days,and the antics of a black lab that he had many years ago. If I was in need of anything Bill could find it for me or loan it to me. Also, I am greatful for his service to our nation. My prayers of comfort ,and encouragement are being sent for all the family of Bill. I miss him too. Tina.
