The untimely death of his father challenged himto accept and cultivate a deep sense of responsibility andregard for his family and friends. He grew to be a manwho was exceedingly well regarded by all. His sense ofhonor, morality, responsibility to friends and family, andtrue and sincere kindness to all was immediately evidentto those he encountered. He was a devoted family manin every sense of the word and provided a strong guidinghand for his children.Always willing to assist those in need, Bill was generouswith thought, word and deed, with no expectation ofrewards or recognition. Bill helped because he could andit was the right thing to do.Over the years of their marriage, Bill and Ann oftendiscussed their wishes for final memorials. Bill adamantlybelieved the greatest memorial to any man wasthe memories of his life in the hearts and minds of thosewho knew him and loved him. And he knew those memorieswould only grow sweeter with time. So each time oneof us tells a story or an account of Bill’s actions or deeds,that memorial shines a little brighter.He was deeply loved and will continue to be honored byour thoughts and prayers.The family suggests memorials to Aim Hospice, POBox 2300, Rockport TX 78381; or the Lewy Body DementiaAssociation Inc., 912 Killian Hill Road S.W., Lilburn, GA30047.Bill’s remains will be cremated and a very private ceremonywill be held at the site of distribution.THE PRECEDING IS A PAID OBITUARY.LINDA B.
