Bill will always be remembered in our hearts.  From the earliest story I remember my mother telling me about Bill when I was just an infant and he would have been around four.  Mother visited with your parents in Cincinatti and stayed for several weeks I believe.  She loved to tell of the time she washed the shoe strings in my infant shoes and hung them in front of some kind of a heat register to dry.  Four year old 'Billy' pushed the ties through the vents and down into the heating vents and his Aunt Mary (my mom) had seven kinds of fits.  She never learned what little boys would get into because when our then four year old son Eric was at Grandmas for a stay over  she had left an envelope of bills on the dresser in the room where she put him to nap, Our Eric (supposedly napping) pushed all the bills in the envelope down the heat register in the room just like Billy had done with the shoe strings.  I think Eric or maybe our Jerry even went one better and put all the marbles from the chinese checkers down the holes in the basement drain also.   

Our shared family has many memories to share over the years and they are happy, sometimes funny some times sad shared memories.  I cherish all my many cousins as you were the siblings I never had.  Bill's quiet way and incredibly sweet smile will always be inscribed in my heart.  The Lord welcomed him with trumpets and organs and your mom and dad stood ready to welcome him home at last.

 Jim, everyone was very fond of Billy. He was fun, compassionate and inspired many people he was around to be a better, more caring person; to be selfless and unselfish. He was always cheerful and being around him, would brighten ones day. He will be greatly missed, but will always be remember in our hearts!

Jim, a very special loved one left us today to meet our Lord.  I loved Bill dearly, he could lift me up when I was sad--we truly shared our life's together and, therefore I'm left with so very many special great memories.  Even in our grief, the special things he did to share his love with each of us leaves us thankful.

May God Bless Each of You,

Love, Mary
