I will always remember Bill as the outdoorsman. One of my favorite childhood memories was sledding down the "ice path" that he helped us build on the steps one winter. I think of that every time I take my kids sledding. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this difficult time. Let perpetual light shine upon him...

I had met Bill through his brother-in-law Randy at deer camp. I found him to be a very engaging and intelligent individual.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time. May your wonderful memories of Bill help comfort you in the days to come.

Bill's smile, jokes, stories, knowledge of muzzle loading guns and skill at making tools and knives from lawn mower blades was an important part of the gun club. Bill's personality just drew you in and made you want him as a friend.
He will be sorely missed at the Columbus Muzzle loading Gun Club and he'll be honored at the next competition.

To Bill's family may the peace of God and the consolation of friends bring you comfort and strength now and in the days ahead.
