Peg & I are so sorry to hear of Bills passing. Bill was a wonderful friend during our high school years as he ferried me back and fourth from my fathers Grocery Store to school. After high school we lost contact with each other as you moved to Il. then his accident did not allow him to return for any of our class reunions. Bill was a wonderful person and had a great sense of humor and will be missed by your family. Know he is in a better place and can watch over you. Kindness regards,
