Mrs. Gilda, Kirstie, and Krystal,
Mr. Bill was a fine man. I remember him from so many years ago when he delivered the bread to the Hyde Out to recent days when we would pass at church. He always had a smile and a handshake. He will be missed by all! Prayers are flowing for all of you during this most difficult time.

Mrs. Gilda,
I never saw Mr. Bill without a huge smile, a laugh, and something nice to say. He was a wonderful example of joy, giving, and selflessness and he will be missed by Fayetteville and all that knew him. It was a true pleasure to have known him.

Depart, O Christian soul, out of this world;
In the Name of God the Father Almighty who created you;
In the Name of Jesus Christ who redeemed you;
In the Name of the Holy Spirit who sanctified you.
May your rest be this day in peace, and your dwelling place in the Paradise of God.
