Uncle Bill; you are a great man that everyone loved. You were a giving and caring soul. You was a Super Dad that gave everything you had.  I loved talking to you, because it was so different than talking to most people. I would discuss my studies in Theology, and you could talk as deep as any professor that I ever had. You exhumed the love of Jesus in everything you did. Just like Jesus, you refused to bash people that would commonly be bashed by the Church; you showed them the love of Jesus too. There is so much that we can learn from you, but yet most of us wouldn't have the heart to live the life you lived. You are a Saint, and a great man. You displayed the light, and now 10,000 angels rejoice in your homecoming. I love you.

Billy, we will miss you so much. There are so many things to remember about you, your wonderful smile, your great sense of humor, your love of music and genealogy ( that we shared together )and most of all, your love of family. It will never be the same without you as part of this family again. Rest in peace Billy. I love you and I hope to see you again on the other side. 
Aunt Joanie 


Bill is one of the few that could do the crosswords in pen! He was always light in heart, even with the surrounding atmosphere was cloudy. Bill was such a good servant of the Lord, I thought his job was not done, but I guess it was.  He will be missed for wherever he
went he shared a smile, a good word, and comfort in whatever company he was keeping.  Prayers for his family.  We have truly lost an angel on earth.

Sorry to hear about Billy's passing. He was a great singer and servant of the Lord. He will be missed in the church. My condolences to the Smith family.

So very sorry for the loss of a fellow Letter Carrier, and Christian. Rest in peace Bill.
