CandleGod Bless Bill & Family, I will always carry fond memories of your family with me, even after all these years. I will cherish the memory of coming there for weekends and then the day Bill took me fishing, he always went by himself, but that day he took me, I was very young, maybe 12, we walked from house to Eagle Lake and got in this row boat and he taught me how to Bass fish. Well his patience with me fumbling around, because I was so nervous was great, best time ever for me, Him well I do not know, he never said. So many other memories, Rest in pPeace Bill, Bob Walter.

You have my deepest condolences for your loss of William. Death is truly an enemy of all of us. Our loving heavenly father Jehovah will reunite us with our lost loved ones soon as promised in the Bible book of Revelation in chapter 21 verse 3,4. These verses may bring you much comfort.

I worked for Planned for over 20 years I would come in every morning with coffee from Dunkin’ Donuts for me and Bill and every once in awhile a glazed donut for him. He was a great boss and a great man. Many fun memories
