Bill, you really were the strong silent type. A steadfast friend that never turned his back to someone when they were in need and never asked for anything in return except friendship. You always put others before yourself and were pleased and sometimes surprised to discover how much others loved and respected you. I will always love you, my honey bun.
Survived by his loving wife Debbie, sisters Diane, Adrienne and Jeanette, sons David and his wife Lori, Wayne and his wife Angelina, grandsons Ryan and Tyler, Joseph, Aaron and Patrick, and granddaughters Sleena and Melissa, great grand daughters Jaydn, Hailee and Elizabeth.

We miss you so Dad
