I got the email notification that it's been four years since William's passing. It's hard to believe its been that long. So much in this world has changed. He's in a better place that's for sure.

I didn't know William very well but he was a great neighbor. Very kind and helpful and always had a big smile on his face and a big wave of the hand when he saw you outside. My family and I will miss him for sure.

In loving memory - words can not express my feelings. My childhood friend is now resting in the arms of our Heavenly Father.  Rest on my friend - rest on.

My mother is "Bill" Watt, and she lives two doors down from William and Debbie. She will be 90 years old in August, and William has been looking after her since my father passed away in 1998. Actually even before that, because he was so kind to her and my entire family during my father's lengthy illness. He was a good man, with a heart as big as Texas. He will be missed. May you find great comfort in your precious memories, and in the certainty that he is with our Lord and Savior.

My condolence to you, Sister Debra Burroughs and Family.

(One by one they pass away, the Brother of our adoption, the Companions of our choice. A Brother whose hand we have clasped in the bonds of Fraternal Fellowship is now passing from our sight, and we know that we shall meet him on Earth no more.) John H. Sewell #23

Rest in Peace my Brother,
Brother Stewart

Pops, you have been one of the greatest influences in my life. Everything I am and have become has been because of the foundation you've established for me. I am forever grateful that God loved me enough to bless me with you. Not only has a father, but as a counselor and friend too. I love you so much and I will always keep you in my heart. No more pain, just paradise and pleasure. #B-MAN Forever!!

Your son,
Keith
