Sending all my love to Sandi, Jill and family. I’ll always remember Uncle Bill as a gentle, laid back and kind man with a booming voice. As a little girl, he always took a little time to have a little chat with me at Christmas. He had a gentle energy that kiddos and animals were drawn to. I have memories of him on grandma and grandpas back patio sighting in rifles for hunting and over the last years he shared many family treasures with my hunting and fishing boys. I’ve heard many stories of the adventures he and his brothers had over the years. May he rest in peace.
