WE knew each other over 50 years and had a blast in HS and several years after. ! RIP
We always enjoyed our afternoon visits with Bill and the tea and snacks we shared. Our dear friend will truly be missed.
My condolences to Bill’s family. Bill was a sweet guy. At work, we bonded over our shared passion for vintage Volkswagens – Type 2 busses and Westfalias, just like his T2 Baywindow in particular. I hope Bill’s family and friends find some peace, strength, and comfort in this difficult time. RIP, Bill.
I worked with Bill & my husband Jim worked w/Bill a lot & they had a lot in common. Jim loved going to work with Bill, he was a sweet person !
Bill was true friend and always had something good say each morning.Bill joined a group of us old guy’s to talk about cars and learn about folks we knew in common over our years of living in Jax. Bill went to Englewood High school with one of my younger brothers. Even though I only knew Bill a few years I felt as though I knew him my entire life. Rest In Peace you are surely missed
Bill and I would work together up until he retired we had a real friendship we love talking about how we were the only child our parents had and we love talking about how we love eating Fruit Loops cereal lol I would often check on him by calling him to see just to let him know I was thinking about him and he would call me making me laugh I am going to miss my friend ret well my friend you were the Best ever!!!! I will miss you.
To Bill’s family and friends please find peace in knowing that Bill is home now. We will all miss him. He was a character. I would not hear from him for months and he would call and say “What are you doing “? RIP brother until we meet again.
Today is your birthday. I hope you’re resting well my friend as I remember all the great moments, laughter and all the life experiences you shared with me.
I knew Bill and his mom since junior high school. Even though I moved out of state Bill and I always had our occasional phone calls to catch up on life. I do miss my old friend. Prayers for comfort to his family and friends.
