Bucky, 

My childhood best-friend. Brother it's still so unreal that you are no longer available to crack jokes and reminiscence of our great childhood and adulthood times on Elizabeth Street, and throughout Chi-Town with all our family and friends. I know you're one of the best DJ's and jokesters  there in Heaven.  Continue Resting In Peace my Brother.  Love You

My childhood to adulthood best friend.  I found out early this year that you had made your transition to Heaven, just a year after my dad. I finally was able to locate your book here to share the great memories and gratefulness, having you as my  God Brother.  Sorry that I was traveling all over the world and lost contact.  Love you  Brother Bucky.

Billy was a great neighbor and friend. Billy always had a welcoming smile, something funny to say and always willing to help in any way he could. Billy you will be missed but you're in heaven now with the rest of the angels

Bill, I made my way to come see you today until we meet again in the Heavens above. We lived in the same building when I was there a few years ago. I considered you one of my closet dear best friends anyone could ever be blessed to have. All the good laughter we shared is priceless! You showed me how to buff my kitchen floor when I had a smear on it from mopping lol. You came to visit my dad when he was at Christ hospital and kept him company even after the family had to leave. Say hello to him for me in Heaven because you are a true Angel too and thats where I know you will be. I miss you already  I thank God we had a chance to talk for 25mins on July 3,2015 that was the last time we spoke. I LOVE YOU BILL!

I knew Bill from Bowling and I thought he was a nice man and always made me feel good.  Although after reading all the lovely post about Bill I am truly blessed to have known him!!  Thanks Bill you will be missed

I am so blessed to have had such an inspirational, up-lifting, supportive, loving, caring, hilarious, accepting, extraordinary, dedicated, hardworking man as my uncle. Thank you for sharing your beautifully radiant personalty with all of us over the years and bringing so much joy and love into our lives. You have touched our family's lives in so many ways and will remain in our hearts forever. God bless!

Bucky was always the sweetest most thoughtful person. Always came to visit mom or anyone who ended up in the hospital. Always concerned about my sister and her kids. Always thinking of others. Had a beautiful moral compass. Always loved his hugs and was always a pleasure to be around. Very positive and loving. I will miss him a lot. God has another very special angel with Him. Give Dar a hug when you see her, Bucky... 2 of the world's best huggers!

Been knowing Bucky since I first started @ Central Community Hospital from 1974 til closing in 1991. Bucky was always a cool brother. Sorry we lost touch all those years.

My first job was at Central Community Hospital in 1974 until closing where I first met Bucky  & Sharon. Sorry we lost touch all those years but you both been on my mind. Sorry we had to be reunited this way.it was a pleasure knowing Bucky those were the good days.

God bless our dear "BUCKY", friend and co worker from Central Community Hospital. Always a smile and never too busy to help out and share a laugh.
Condolences and prayers to the family, he surely made you very proud.

"I have known Bucky for over 35 years, first met him when we were young men in our 20's, he was always high energy, loved playing basketball when he was younger and bowling.  Bill was a good friend over the years, rarely saw him bent out of shape, always had a smile and a word of encouragement for his friends and people in general, I will miss him, may you rest in peace my Brother!"

Fondly known to Hope as Buff Daddy Bill! He will be missed dearly. Such a great guy and always put a smile on everyone's face. RIP Bill!
