With profound sorrow and heartbreak,we mourn the loss of our extraordinary friend and neighbor,Mr. Bill,whom we considered part of our extended family.Mr. Bill passed away one day shy of his 81st birthday.Yet,in celebration of his life,we'd like to mark his heavenly 81st birthday.We are heartbroken and will deeply miss him and all the quality time we had together,including the events and delightful conversations filled with great stories about his life and family.Our routine of gathering in the pole barn, sharing meals,and engaging in lively discussions will be particularly hard to continue without him.The guys cherished his presence, especially during hunting season,when Mr. Bill would regale them with captivating stories from his youth.His love for John's campfire cooking was legendary,and he'd rarely miss a gathering.Even after the season ended,he'd drop by just to hang out,eagerly asking when the next get-together would be.Mr. Bill was surely an undeniable blessing to us all.I recall when we first moved here in 2019;he'd bring over farm equipment to assist Stephen with planting and share valuable farming knowledge. I remember he told us about the helping hand he gave to Ms. Bounds,the owner of the property before us;he seemed to have a connection to her family and this area. Grateful for the bond we shared we will truly miss his presence, caring & thoughtfulness. 
When we moved here, unfamiliar with the area,Billy and Patsy introduced themselves and helped us feel comfortable settling in.Mr. Bill is an exemplary farmer, sharing his expertise with Stephen and enriching our lives with historical anecdotes and life stories.You could tell just how much he loved coming over to visit and hanging out. He loved his lady,Patsy;it was very obvious in the way he would always speak of her. The love and care she gave back shined.Mr Bill's departure is a void for both Stephen and me. Our deepest sympathy, thoughts, and prayers are with all his family in these difficult times.
