Good old times

I met Bill in first grade and we became friends right from the start. We both grew up with all boy brothers and we both had 4. We worked on our cars, vans and other projects together. We worked together at the corner store cutting up boxes and putting out trash for Mr. Joe. We hung out after school at each other's houses all the time. I would even sleep over at Bill's a lot. Sorry Ms. El for that accidental kick that one time. We were like family (brothers), but as we got older we didn't see each other as much. You are in a much better place, pain free and in the hands of God. I'm glad we got to talk the day before and Linda and I had planned to stop by that Friday on our way back to Delaware. Linda and I will miss you more than you know. We will pray for the family.

Work Buddy

Thanks for helping this young lad push through the hours at the auto shop. Your customer service skills you have taught will live in my veins from now on. Your laugh brought joy to us when times were blue. And your jokes were painfully corny but I loved every single one. I use some to this day myself as Dad jokes....Thanks Bill. Your one of the greats!

Memories

Bill and I met in 5th grade In Baltimore. I moved to Nee Jersey in1969 and we wrote each other for a year or two. Through Social Media (Facebooks), we reconnected a few years ago. We had plans to meet in person (after many years) but Covid hit. I laughed at some if the jokes he would post and am sorry we never got to see each other one more time. Peace to the family. Until we meet again Bill.

More than a co-worker, a friend

I remember working with Bill at Plaza Ford for many years.  Then he broke of to run his own shop.  He would stay in touch, not just to ask advise, but to see how we were doing.  I will miss Bill.
