I just want to say thanks to Bill for being a good man and letting me fish and ride on some of his property without knowing me personally and just being a generous man from what I can gather not only that but the one time I did meet him he was working and sweating hard. I didn't expect that from someone of his position. He was an admirable man.

Jenn and I send our deepest condolences.  Mr. Bill was a kind, true gentleman.  He is an industry icon who was respected and adored.  His love of Christ and family was admirable and honorable.  I am appreciative I had the pleasure to be with him for 15 years and share some good memories.  Especially the Christmas party prep up all night long!!  Good times.  May he rest in peace with the Trinity! 

Love,
Jenn and Joe Pede
