Bill was my father-in-law for nearly 28 years. I had the privilege of speaking at his funeral where I tried to capture the essence of Bill's life and work. For any who are interested, my effort can be found at the URL below.
Given a little time to reflect, I have come to see that God gave Bill a unique and wonderful ministry. I doubt that Bill would have called it that, but if God is the giver of all good gifts, then surely Bill's passion and commitment were a gift from God.
Bill was the kindest man we ever met. He always had a ready smile for everyone and was loved and adored by all that knew him. He will be sadly missed by every person whose life he touched. For Bill:
"Softly they walk within our thoughts. They are not gone who live in the hearts they leave behind." Prayers and special blessings to Janie and Debbie and the rest of the family.
With love,
Joyce and Sharon
