Jeanann and family,

My family and I are praying for you and yours. Bill was a warm and loving person.

We remember meeting you and your dad for the first time - outside the dorms on our first day of college. My parents' car wouldn't start and your dad's battery had died. Even during his crisis, he kindly offered my parents assistance, joking about their “luck.” His thoughtfulness on that day was never forgotten.

My heart goes out to you during this time.

I love you.

Abby
