Our Dearest Uncle Bill....it has been several years and it seems just like yesterday we were sitting on the porch at the beach house enjoying you and Loy's company along with the great view, the birds while enjoying our morning coffee...I was in Chicago visiting my sister and my mom when I received that awful phone call....was not able to attend your funeral but you know that I was there...There are no words to describe how much we miss you and Loy...you are in a much better place...Someday we will be together again!!!
