One of life's greatest sorrow is the loss of someone you love. May you rest in peace Dear Bill today tomorrow and always. I find great comfort in knowing that you are reunited with my dear parents Jeanne and "Ace". They welcomed you at Heavens Gate. I will miss our weekly phone visits but I promise you I will keep in touch with Betty as I promised my dear Mom that I would keep in touch with you! Until we meet again God Bless You!

My brother and I Had quite an interesting history. It went from love to hate and back to love. We would talk frequently and he would always ask about big Jake my son,Sharon my wife and did we get another dog. I spoke with him Christmas day and he was fine according to him. He now is with our father,mother,and our sister who left this earth way to early. The good news to all of this is We will be together again someday Rest in Peace Will. Until we meet again
