I am sad to have lost a dear friend. however I rejoice for the new life he will have. Bill was a very special person, he lit up a room when he entered. It was a special light, a warm glow, a soft and reassuring glow. He was a gentleman, you could tell that he was walking with God and God was walking with him. He was a man to be admired and man to seek out as a friend.
I have known only one other person who had those qualities, my mentor Igor Sikrosky, the man who wrote the book 'The Message of the Lord's Prayer'. Above and beyond success in the business world, he was a man of God. So it was with my experience with Bill. In my opinion, he ws a successful businessman, and a successful man of faith and Godly works.
There a certian quality about Bill, that when you were with him, you were at peace. He may now be in peace with the angels, but his effect on all of us will be long felt. My prayer goes out to his family, and to all those who held him close in their hearts.
I regret that Yvie and I will not be able to attend his burial service.
I shed a tear for his leaving us, a smile in the hope of his new life, knowing full well that his "MEMORY WILL BE ETERNAL"
With love and the comfort that our Lord provides us
