Carole and Family, I am sorry to read about the passing of your Dad. We were old neighbors of your family on Teakwood Drive in Windsor Woods and your parents watched as Brenda raised our sons Tommy and Jeffery. After we moved in the mid 80's our lives took different paths. I know what your family is going through as I lost my father this past May and My Wife, Brenda on August 27. My prayers are with you and your Family during this time of sorrow and remember the Great Memories that I sure you have of your Dad because MEMORIES ARE FOREVER and they can never be taken away from you. With our deepest sympathy, Dale , Thomas & Jeffrey Murray

I'd like to pass on mu condolences to the family of Billy. I worked for Billy at Parks & Recreation. He saw potential in me & taught me a lot about how important a good work ethic was and under his guidance and leadership help mold me into the supervisor I am today. I truly owe Billy for what I learned from him and he'll be missed dearly.

Dear Carol and family,
Back in 1988, a week before graduating High School, I joined the United States Navy. I wanted so much to make Uncle Bill proud of me. He was a man I could always look up to and be proud to say, he was my uncle. I have a lot of memories of he and Aunt Kathleen from when I was very young, and while living in Virginia Beach and Norfolk.My thoughts, love, and prayers go out to the entire family and friends. I will miss you Uncle Bill, and will never forget you. Thank you for being my uncle.

Dear Laurie, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers during this most difficult time. It is never a "good" time to lose a loved one, but be assured that God has already heard our prayers and has provided a comforter for you.
