Irrevocablly relevent only in the passing Love transcended time and space and in one instant with a breath of a whisper on borrowed time you and I became known... Everything that is, was... and will become.... Time is a thief in the night and we are the culprits.... Secrets of the universe you possess... live everything because all that remains becomes Nothing where we are lain... Life is tragically beautiful too much is lost when you focus on the rain and miss the storm.... RIP Dad I wish I knew you and you me xxoo As Always your Daughter Melissa

Bill was a dear friend and my Marine Corps brother. While stationed at Cherry Point MCAS we made many road trips home to Philadelphia together, at that time in our lives we probably knew each other better than our own families knew us. Bill went on to serve as best man at my wedding in 1972. Bill and and I remained friends although time and distance prevented us spending much time together, I did get to visit with Bill several times at his home in California. My wife and I are both saddened by Bills passing and will cherish great memories from our many years of friendship.
