Friends for many years. Bill was truly a gentleman with the best sense of humor ... loved all the stories he shared. Many special memories we will treasure of him and his lovely wife, Eileen. Rest in peace and glad they are together once again!

We have so many fond memories of good times shared with Bill and Eileen back in the day when Eileen and I worked at the Union Pacific together. The ski trips to Powder Horn were so much fun!! Bill driving Eileen to work each day, as she napped in the back of their van ... such a good husband he was. Taking an entire group of children (ours included) to the Museum of Science & Industry in a chartered bus on New Year's Eve and to Connie's for pizza afterwards! Bill and Eileen were both so kind and generous in their lives, and I for one, truly feel blessed to have known them. Rest in peace Bill ... you and Eileen are together again for eternity.
Love, Maureen, Joe and Family
