Condolences

Dear Minnie and Family, It has been a priviledge and an honour to know Bill and have him share so many stories about the past and our families. I will always treasure the memories of our visits and the words of wisdom he offerred. He was one in a million! With his faith in the Lord, we know he has gone to his heavenly home where there is no more sufferring and pain, where one day, the good Lord willing, we look forward to seeing him again. I'm sure the Lord welcomed him with "Well done my good and faithful servant!" Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. May the knowledge that Bill was ready to answer whenever his Saviour called bring you peace. He will be so missed, but forever in our hearts!
