It was always good seeing and sharing family events and celebrations with Bill and Sue - when I visit Deb (my sister), Doug (my brother in-law), Danielle (my niece), and Devin (my Godson). My prayers and light to everyone at this time. Jeff
I worked with Bill at NSA and wanted to give my condolences to his family

I recall often times we would stop in on our rounds of visiting all the relatives when we came to Ohio for 30 days…my Dad was in the USAF and stationed at various bases so we would come to Ohio once a year for a vacation. Bill & Sue’s house was at the top of the list (sorry guys!) and there was always a dinner involved. She had 3 growing boys to feed and family visiting so dinner was getting served. Towards the end of dinner, uncle Bill dragged in so exhausted but always smiling. He offered his apology for working late, snuggled with his boys and sat down to a dinner that aunt Sue had set aside for him. I liked to listen to his funny stories and exploits as he always left you smiling or laughing afterwards. One time he had to go back out and I asked if I could tag along as he had to put out a few fires/issues at McDonald’s…I ended up getting a hamburger and orange drink out of the trip! I remember staying with them shortly after HS graduation when I moved from Florida to Ohio and stayed with Donnie & Kathy until that didn’t work anymore. I worked at Goodwill with Aunt Kathy. Aunt Sue was a bus driver back then and dropped me off at D&K’s house and aunt Kathy would shuttle me to work. That lasted until just before January 1976 when I went into the Navy. I also recall visiting with them in Maryland near the Naval Academy when Amanda & Joshua were a bit grown up. We had some great times visiting and the kids took to uncle Bill so easy. He was a gentle big man and will be missed.
Uncle Bill was the best he was always funny and good to all of us you’ll be dearly missed
