I'm sorry to hear of Bill's passing. I worked with Bill in the Boiler Room at Lubrizol for 13 Yrs. We kept in touch after we both retired. I'm sure Bill will be missed by his many friends.

Gail, Bill, Carolyn, and Jimmy, Sorry to hear about the loss of a great father and husband. Bill was a great guy and I enjoyed the time I spent with him. He was a big part in teaching me to Fish and Hunt and got me working and enjoying the outdoors. You all welcomed me in your house and I enjoyed all the time spent down on Gweldoyn. My thoughts and prayers go out all of you.

Carolyn, my condolences to you and your family.

To Gail, Billy, Caroline and Jimmy, I am so very sorry to learn of your dad's passing. Our family has many fun memories of your dad on Gwendolyn and he was a very friendly. kind man. I remember having fun going with him on a deer hunt and writing a story about it for the Star Beacon. It seemed like he was always out back walking around in the woods or working in your yard. I remember how proud he was of Billy doing well in baseball, too. Last time I talked w/ your dad he was talking about how great it was to have grandchildren. All the best to your family in this tough time. Aaron Dorksen

Gail- I'm so sorry to learn of your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless
