Barbara, Guy, Brad and all the family.  Bill was my first cousin and always my hero, 14 years my elder.  When I was a young lad and we would visit Gladys and Carroll in Abilene my first move was to Bill's closet.  There he kept his US Marine helmet, steel and liner.  I loved wearing it and playing around.  Bill noticed that and one day said, "Danny, you can have it, take it home with you."  I couldn't believe it.  It was a powerfully wonderful thing he did for me that day.  Ill never forget it. That was Bill.  A solid American, deeply loving of his family, always trying to do what's right.  I'm so glad my son Russ got to know him a little while he was stationed at Lemoore.  Fair winds and following seas Bill.  A life well lived.

Thanks Bill and the Rogers family for the great memories. Walden Square was my second home growing up.I looked up to Bill from Texas he was the Man's man. Brad, Guy and the family 
I will be thinking of you in your time of need

Bill was a true friend.  My family and I will always remember him for the natural and effortless kindness he gave everyone.  His was a life lived well.

Mr. Rogers -   Thank you forever giving us kids from the old neighborhood a taste of the country life.  Visiting your “Land” with the gang, were special times and many great childhood memories.  

My warmest thoughts and prayers to Brad, Guy and family -

I grew up with a real Mister Rogers that WAS my neighbor. Not much of a sweater guy, but a great neighbor. My thoughts for Guy and his family are that of peace and knowing that we will see Bill again.

My sympathy, thoughts & prayers to all who loved him.  May God's promise of eternity bring you peace and your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

My sympathy and prayers to your family...
I will always remember Bill as such a nice, funny and handsome man.  Thinking of you all at this time.
