I miss you so much!!!! I still can't believe you are really gone. I think about you all the time and miss your smile, your touch, your kiss, your hug, your laugh, your cooking, your jokes, your everything and most of all our time together. You were my husband, my best friend. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and thank God that you were a part of my life for 12 years. I wish it could have been forever. I will carry you with me always in my heart. I know times weren't the best always, but know that I always loved you and always will. You meant the world to me in so many ways. I just wish I would have shown you more when you were here. You were and always will be my 1st love. It is so hard to go on with life without you by my side. I wish I could be with you right now. I know I will see you again someday and I look forward to that day. Thank you for loving me and always being there for me.

*I wish Heaven had a phone so I could hear your voice again. I thought of you today, but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake, from which I'll never part. God has you in his arms........I have you in my heart... (R.I.P. Bill) I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER *

William Robert Jenney (my Cooch, my Buger, my Willard), You were my husband, my lover, my life, my all. I will miss you dearly. I will think of you ever step I take and miss you all the days of my life. You had a heart of gold and took care of me like no one ever has or will. Even when you were sick as a dog you always made sure I ate and was taken care of for that day. You were a wonderful cook and mechanic. I will miss your touch, your kiss, your smile, your laugh, your jokes, your everything. I am so blessed and thank God that you were a part of my life for 12 years. I just wish it could have been forever. I will love you always. I look forward to seeing you again someday.

Your Wife FOREVER,
Kimberly Jenney

Kimberly, Matthew, the Jenney’s and the Ward Family
We are so terribly sorry for your loss. Bill was taken from us too soon and will truly be missed. Life is too short, take time to be with loved ones, not just today but always. Surround yourselves with those that deeply care for you, honor your values and will not only support you today, but in the hard times that may come. Lots of love, God Bless.

My deepest condolences from the bottom of my heart. He was such a wonderful person, I have the fondest memories of Billy. He would crack me up, he was such a clown! He was one of my best friend in grammar school. My only regret is that I lost touch and didn't try harder to reach him. Tim, I'm truly sorry for the loss to his family and to his so many friend. He touched so many lives.

Tim and family our prayers are with you at this hard time. Hang in there and be there for each other. Sorry for your lost. karen

Samantha and Matthew, take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you and your dad will be with you and by your side at all times. In the past months we have talked, he assured me many times that he loved you both very much.

Your big moment has come
The light from heaven shines upon you
And the angels whisper softly to follow their way
The cooling comfort of the big blue sky
With the shine of the sun so beautiful and bright
Living in peace forever once you follow the guiding light and you are home
This deep loss we have we must overcome
For we will all be together again in God's home
