Eileen and I were sad to hear of the passing of our dear friend Bill.We didn't see much of him since the passing of our brother Syd (Garrett) who died in 2011 but we thought of him with love and friendship. We still have many 'photos of Bill and your Mom Jean and even a family group taken at Hudson beach. We will not be in Florida again until next year....probably April. Thank you for getting in touch. Sadly Sandy and Judy (Roka) have passed on also. Our thoughts are with you all. We will never forget Bill.

With deepest sympathy on the loss of your father/grandfather. To Bill I was always Jeanie the close family friend who grew up with his girls. To me, as a child, he was always the very tall, handsome, kind, funny Dad of my close friends. A man who cherished his wife and family. He loved his life with Jean in his beautiful Florida home in his retirement years. As a visitor to that home in the 1980's I saw how much he was enjoying his life. Mourn his passing but remember to celebrate his life as well. He loved you all very much. Jean Connelly Rowe
A lot of laughing at the cottage. Fun at Christmas .Will be missed a lot.
Not only a great loving Father, provider, good listener, and a fair person - but also one hell of a man.
His qualities that I admired are endless. He is now wrapped in the arms of God, with Mom and Susan - all are at peace.
You are missed by many Dad, as you've impacted the lives of your entire family in so many good ways.
With Love,
Mark
