I will miss seeing you at Wal-Mart. You always asked how we were and always asked me to say hi to Paul. Wishing you heavenly peace, Bill.

My sympathy to Bill’s family, I’m so sorry to hear of his passing.
I worked with Bill for many years, he was such a joy to be around! Rest in peace my friend.

Bill was a highlight of my job. I'll always remember training with him in Brookings almost 26 years ago. One of the most caring, generous people I've ever met. RIP Bill!

Thanks for always being such a great friend for my Dad! I remember when you two were roomies back when I was a little girl ! Then I was lucky enough to work with you at JCPenney’s. You always had a fun sense of humor and I’ll always remember your sheepish smile when you found something funny. You were always kind and funny and happy. Rest in peace Bill. Xoxo

Bill was a blessing to me over the years. I learned some things from his knowledge and wisdom. He was a Godly man. He was trusting Jesus and now is with The Lord.

So sorry to hear of Bill’s death…but I know he’s not sad. He’s rejoicing with his Savior! I met Bill and Jan when they were homeschooling their granddaughter. It was a big task, but Bill was a very positive and joy-filled believer. His hope was evident in the way he lived. I’ll be praying for his family. 🙏🏻
