Dad, I want to tell you how much I love you. I will always treasure the good times..Hunting..Fishing...Little League. You taught me how to be a man. To not be afraid to leave town and venture out into the world..I will always love you. I will meet you in Heaven someday and greet you with a smile and a huge hug! You're loving son.....Paul...P.S....Give mom a hug and a kiss for me!

My deepest sympathies to Bill's family.  It was a long time ago I met Bill when he was a junior officer at West Irving State Bank in Chicago.  I started there right out of high school and Bill welcomed me to the team in such a positive, helpful and kind way.  Anytime I had any questions about banking or customer service, Bill was always available to make me look good.  

Everyone liked and respected Bill, both fellow employees and customers. He was a consumate professional and always took a personal interest in everyone he met.  

For years, I remember how he kept pictures of his two sons, Billy & Bobby, dressed in cowboy outfits, in his wallet.  How proud he was of them as he was of Midge, his wife.  When he left the bank in the 60s, we were all sad, but happy for him as he embarked on a new career.

I'll always remember how kind he was to me and what a friend he became so many years ago.  God bless his memory and his family.  Bill epitomized the term, "A really nice guy."
