    Bill always had a smile and a wave when I would see him in the community. He was ready and willing to help in any way around our offices, and I enjoyed sharing a coffee and time with him at the gazebo in the summer. Very sorry to hear of his passing. Peace and Blessings.

    To the family of Bill our thoughts & prayers are with you at this sad time. Bill was a very special & loving man. His love for his family was a big part of who Bill was. He looked so forward to his trips home to go fishing with his niece and spend time with his sisters. It is hard to express how much Bill ment to us at Kettlewell Insurance, he was our go to guy. We are sorry we could not be there to share our memories with you as we just found out 20min before the service, and it was not possible to get there. Just know that we all cared deeply for Bill and we will miss his great sense of humor. He is at peace now, no more suffering. We miss you Bill. – Kettlewell Ins.

    Dear Bill…So sad but many fond memories of you coming over and sweeping the back stairs of the apt. Carrying your bottle of coke so you could get some cigs as you referred to them. You always came over and told me about your trips to see your family, including the wedding and showed me your new suit. God Bless you my friend and all of us at 76 Frank St. we are with you.
