Betty, I am sorry to hear that Bill is gone. He was extremely welcoming to myself and my brother and very helpful when we first moved on to Pavilion road. A very generous and trusting man, lent out his riding lawn mower to us in order to cut our almost knee high grass. Bill will definitely be missed in our little community.
Condolence From: Brenda Mulligan
