It's so nice to see some new faces in my comments and I thank you all so dearly for coming by. Soon I will visit you and say hello. Thank you all my friends for the support and caring you have shown as my family has traveled this time with Bill. He was a good, good man and wonderful dad and grandpa and the best husband a gal could ask for. We hope to do him proud with his funeral. I love you all. Be kind to one another.

I am so sadden to hear of Bill's passing Brenda. I know he was a wonderful man, husband and father and I don't know why our darling husbands were taken from us, I only know that God chose two beautiful roses for his garden up in heaven. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers my friend. And that I am only a phone call away. If you need to cry, we will cry together, if you need to scream, we will do that together too. If you just want to talk-I can do that as well. What ever you need, I'm here for you. Sending much love your way as well as prayers too.
