  10. Just heard about Bill. It is so sad. Bill worked with me and I have great memories. He was a great guy who loved to work and always had a funny joke every day. He often spoke about his 2 dogs one was named Precious, and I hope they have found a good home. He also talked about his family, often at our lunch break, he was very proud of his surviving son Baron. He spoke of enjoying the holiday dinners and what a great cook Freda was. I will miss his humor, stopping by his junk shop, having lunch with him and occasionally a cold beer after work. Here’s to you my good friend of many years May you Rest In Peace and I know we will meet again. Dave, Mt Dora Fl

  12. We are so sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. He and his family were our neighbors on Grandview Circle years ago. Our boys played together. We are so sad to think that Bill and 2 of his precious sons are gone. Peace and comfort to Freda and Barron in the coming weeks.

  15. I first knew Bill in a professional capacity. But over the years I grew to consider him a friend. He was a hard worker and kept a positive attitude. We’ll miss him.
