I am heartbroken to learn of my wonderful Uncle Bill's passing, only today. I don't even have words to express how sorry I am. He was my father's favorite brother and the nicest uncle to me. What i will always remember is how much he cared about others, his unselfishness and strong faith. Heaven gained an angel October 31st. He was so very kind, thoughtful, generous...I could go on and on. When he would call, my smile muscles would hurt from laughter. I always recall how much he adored my aunt, Marion. We had all worked for the First National Bank in Boston. I know you're in heaven, Uncle Bill with Marion, my father, Richard and all your brothers, Jack, Jimmy and Eddie. I'm sure you have them all in stiches up there (especially with your St. Peter jokes), i can hear you now. With the Very Deepest Sympathy and love to all of you.
