My deepest sympathies to the Cahill Family. I just heard of Bills passing. My father Eugenio Gomez and I both started our real estate careers with Cahill Bros. I have many good memories from those days. The Cahill family will be in my prayers. Take care and God Bless! Jesse Gomez.

I just heard about Bill passing today. I thought about him about two weeks ago. He made me an on-the-spot loan to buy my first home about an hour before closing after my lender screwed up. I later went to work for him at the real estate office. We had many laughs together and went to a couple of baseball games with Bill, Sr. He will always be one of the good guys and I will miss him. Love to the family. I share in your loss.
