Bill, I will always remember the little things you said and how well you took care of your family! I’m going to miss Sheila telling me the funny things you said and did.
I send my condolences to the family. Bill was a very good family man that I have a lot of respect for.
Billy and Sheila- so sorry about your loss. My dad, Norm Seurinck, so loved your mom and dad! Prayers for all of you at this time.
Our hearts are sad as another of our “gourmet club” has passed. We have so many wonderful memories of times with Bill and Sandy. Our prayers are with the family. Jane/Ken Cathey
