Very few people come into ones life that truley you call Friends.
Bill happened to be one of mine.
Both Bill and Sue are the type of people that always had time for everyone else no matter what it took or cost them.
Truley a quality friendship that is not taken lightley by those lucky enough to have known them.
He is and will be dearly missed.
Save me a Spot at the Card Table my friend, I don’t plan and coming real soon but someday we shall meet up again.

Sue, we are so sorry to hear about your loss. You and Bill were both special to us. It is good to recall that Bill had put his trust in Jesus Christ. That means that he has gone home. He is with the Master even now. But there is still grief that he has been taken from you and the others who loved him. And now you have to continue on without him. There will be difficult days ahead. You will be in our prayers. Jesus Christ is faithful, and He will equip and empower you to carry on in victory. We always wish you the best. Gary & Cindy Wales.

Mrs. (Sue) Miner, I’m saddened to hear of your loss. I remember you and Bill from church as my (Awana Leader) many years ago, and the sweet spirit you both had. May our Savior wrap his arms around you and give you comfort in the days ahead. God Bless. I will be praying for you and the Family.
