I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Although I didn't know him well, I know some of you very well. I feel your pain. Having lost my sister-in-law just a few weeks ago, the pain is all too real. Lean on each other and comfort each other. It helps! Your loss will bring you closer together.
Love, Sherri

I personally will miss Bill especially at the house when the proverbial "Hey Chauvette, come here" was spoken. Our deepest thoughts for Grammy at her time of need to. God bless you all.

The Cass family -
I'm sorry to hear of Billy's passing; it seems that there's almost no one left in "our neighborhood" from those days. Also, I hope that Martha's recovering well from her misfortunes.
My father also sends his condolences.
