Guestbook

  1. I am so sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed seeing Bill and Mary at church. They always seemed to enjoy the music when the choir sang. Know that the angels and the Heavenly Farther are taking care of him now.

  2. Chappel Family, so sorry to hear of your loss, also a loss to the Bond County community as Bill was a huge supporter of agriculture and 4-H. Supported the Bond County 4-H program and auction for many years, I think he'll find a way to help the kids in Heaven.

  3. Sorry about your loss. You have lost a father and husband who has guided his loved ones to become respected friends, co-workers, and neighbors. He was proud of you and it makes it easier for him to watch over everyone from above.

  4. Mary, I am so sorry for the loss of Bill. He always had a smile for me when we crossed paths. My prayers are for strength for you and comfort for your family.

  5. Please accept our sincere condolences on behalf of Bill & Mary, Ernie, gena & Carrie. Our families go back a long time we have always thought of you as family. Love & Prayers, Kathy & Harry
