Aunt Mary and Family, My heart is broken to hear of Uncle Billy's death. He was so very special to Jack and I, and we will cherish all the memories. He was the glue that held the family together. He raised four wonderful children, along with you(Aunt Mary), and you meant the world to him. He was an outstanding Uncle, and was so generous and kind. What a wonderful example he was to us all. Rest in peace my special Uncle, and may you fly high with the Angels. Till we meet again. Love Nancy and Jackie
