I am truly saddened to hear of Bill’s passing. I have goose hunted with him for some time now. He was a passionate hunter and good story teller. Most of all, he was very proud of his family, and would talk of them lovingly often. God speed Bill!
My sincerest condolences for you at this time. You have my deepest sympathy. Wishing you peace, comfort, courage, and lots of love at this time of sorrow. My heart goes out to you at this difficult time.
Our condolences. We will keep everyone in our thoughts and prayers.
