Hi bill
Well as always we had a great Christmas Eve and day veronica was hosting a party had great food and music I missed you as always til I see you soon
Love your girl Jean

Merry Christmas Papa. Missed you so much today but we had a really nice day with the family. I’m sure you know that because I felt your presence and see you in your grandson who has turned out to be a fine young man! Mom and I spent Christmas Eve watching all our favorite Rankin Bass shows like we used to do, and of course watched a Christmas Carol for you. Love you more every day we are apart. Hope you are enjoying some craft beer and pepperoni with the rest of the family up there. Love you always and forever Daddy. Your little girl Veronica Leigh.

Happy 59th Anniversary Dad. I can still remember your 50th. One of my most precious memories is that day, the great dinner at that crab place, the anniversary cake with your wedding photo on it, your dance with mom. Thank you for being the perfect role model for us. We love you daddy and missing you so much right now. Veronica Leigh

Hey Buddy. alwyas read tne tributes,Veronica has conracted me . I recall working ione thanks giving with you Couldn't cook a turkey n the precinct kitchen so I made a bourbon glazed ham  NO there was no booze allowed as Sgt Schultz s aid :I know nothing" about any bourbon. Dickle  was the brand The laughs we shared are written in the memories of working with you. I know your family toasted you and rightfully so. Stay smiling at all who held you in such high regard. 0-3

Mr. Wahler, I remember you as the man all men should aspire to be—a man who served his country, his community, and his family. I remember you being that pillar of strength for your family where they knew they always had that umbrella of protection that you provided for them—a man who was devoted to his wife and was always there for his children. In so many ways, I have seen so many of the same qualities in you that I too have seen in my dad. He too served, just as you did. He too loved, protected, and provided for his family, just as you did. For what I know is that for the short time, I knew you, I can say that I feel blessed to have known another man, just like my father, who demonstrated to the world what real men should be. I know it is men like you and my dad, that are with the Lord in his Kingdom for eternity, for it is so well deserved after the life that you so lived.

Hey bill
Happy Thanksgiving bill we missed you and our son yesterday he moved to oaklahoma with his family we all love you
Your girl jean

I’m forever thankful for you Dad. You know that. I have long admired your courage and strength, your wisdom, your love, your giving. So thank you from the bottom of my heart and Happy Thanksgiving in Heaven. I love you so very much!! ❤️

Happy Halloween Daddy. Always think about the Great Pumpkin and how you and mom made it so special! We took a family photo today and I wished you were here for that, but I know you are in spirit. I keep our old traditions alive as much as possible in hopes that your grandchildren will have memories they too can look back on and smile about like I do. Love you always Dad!

Many people come in and out of our lives, but seldom leave a foot print on your heart. Bill was one of those rare people as they say in Brooklyn,right near Astoria, "U da best" Bill "O-3) Artie french

       Love you your girl jean

Hi bill
Sure do miss you you were the love of my life trying to live my life but it’s not like when you were here you your girl jean

Dear Dad, 6 years ago this day, was the last Father’s Day I spent with you in the physical form. I bought you a blue blanket with dolphins on it, for your love of the sea. I came over and sat at your side assisting you to eat some steak, but I could see in your eyes that you were ready to stop. You had finally made the decision that you no longer wanted to be fed, bathed, or coddled like a baby. You wanted to be free from your disabled body, your suffocated speech, the fragility. Now that I look back, I couldn’t agree with you more. Today, I embrace the love I have for you. You made our lives complete filled with knowledge, stories, history, wisdom, talent, and the unconditional love of the worlds greatest father. I’m so proud of who you were and will continue on through this life with my head held high knowing I was loved by such an amazing man with a beautiful soul. I love you always Daddy. Your little girl, Veronica Leigh

Thinking of you dad. Went to Sebastian today by the water. Always dream you are somewhere out on the water loving your boat and fishing near the dolphins. I love you Daddy.

Happy Easter Dad . I hope that God has given you a comfy seat while you watch this game of life down here. You are missed at every dinner table, every Easter egg hunt, every picture that is taken is missing your whimsical glance, your warm smile. I know you’re here with us though, because everything I do is a reminder of the things you and mom taught us so well. Thank you for being the greatest father to us. May God continue to light our lives with his blessings of good health and loving family. I love you Dad. ❤️

Happy new year bill I so miss you and love you so much
Love your girl Jean

Happy New Years Daddy!! I love you so much!! ❤️❤️❤️

Merry Christmas Bill and Happy New Years Eve so miss you I love bill your girl jean

Merry Christmas Dad, missing you so bad tonight. Right now you’d be watching A Christmas Carol and telling me stories from your childhood until the wee hours of the morning while we pig out on cheese potato chips and pepperoni. I love you Daddy. My one wish is that you are happy where you are. I know we WILL see you again someday, until then, keep the lighthouse light running for us. Here’s a photo of our family together the last Christmas. Still here with you always! ❤️

Hi bill
I sure do miss you I’m thinking of our wedding anniversary 58 years ago today a big kiss and hug love you your girl jean

Im leaving you some virtual flowers as a gift to you as we always sent flowers to you and mom on this special day. Today, in 1964, you married your soulmate. 58 years today. You always said “until the 12th of never, and that’s a long, long time”. No matter where you are, we will always celebrate this day as a thank you for creating our wonderful family. I have so much to be thankful for, I love you dearly Dad and think of you so much it still hurts so bad, but I’m strong like you told me I am so I’ll get through this life OK no need to worry. May you be celebrating the life you had on earth with Mom and that’s a love that just don’t quit! Happy 58th Anniversary Papa! ❤️

Happy Halloween Dad I remembered how you brought the Great Pumpkin to life each year. Mom would yell from the living room window, “He’s here! Hurry you’re going to miss him!” Me and Billy would come running up onto the couch and peer out in the thick black night, waiting to catch a glimpse of the shimmering light, and there he was, bobbing up and down on the fence line in the moonlight, the Great Pumpkin Himself!! Years later, I find myself remembering and missing that old pumpkin, but more importantly, the man behind it. Daddy, thank you for giving me a wonderful memory. I shall never forget how much love you showed us through moments like these. One of a kind you were and will always be my hero! ❤️ Love you Dad so much. 

Happy 81st Birthday Bill love and miss you
Jean

Daddy, you used to say to me that I will be your “little girl” forever no matter how old I am. For me, you will never grow old in my mind you will ALWAYS be my handsome, smart, healthy and wonderful Father!! I wish you a very Happy Birthday in those silver clouds where I’m pretty sure you got your feet up on the rail of a sailboat, slowly rocking to Jimmy Buffet, holding a Dixy Bull fishing rod just waiting for a bite! I love you so much Daddy! ❤️

Happy Birthday Bill, tell Ann I miss her, and my life is not the same without her. May she be with you to celebrate your Birthday. You are both missed by many people here on earth. 

Happy Birthday Bill up with Ann and God in his beautiful heavenly realm.

Happy Birthday in Heaven, Papa. We miss you so much. I hope you are fishing in that special fishing hole today and enjoying the day. Don't take all the fish, though. Save some for me when I meet you up there. No worries....I will bring the Natural Lite. Love you and miss you!

Dad, this day of the year and every year forever more, will always be the worst. I lost you. I lost one half of who I am. You are 1/2 my heart. I will never be whole again, not until we are together. I am so thankful for your choices in life brought together the family we are today. Mom, Billy, and I are here still always missing you, and always loving you, never forgetting the wonderful husband and father you were to us all. I love you Papa with all the heart I have left. Forever honoring you as a legend in your own time. The strongest, warmest and smartest man that ever lived, I love you so very much. Your daughter Veronica Leigh

Veronica, Will be glad to review your photos!!

Happy fathers Day Bill, please tell Ann for me that I miss her like crazy. I know you are telling her some of your fabulous stories that she loved to hear. You will both be with me here on earth till I join you in Heaven
My love to both of you
Don.

To my love Bill wahler
Oh bill I wish you were here is so lonely without you I miss all of your cop friends just make sure you are there at the gates when I get there! Love. Your girl jean forever

Happy Fathers Day Dad. I will always recall how proud I was to have you as my father. I talked about you to everyone I met. Held you in the highest regard. You held my hand through scary times. Talked me up when I felt so down. Lifted my spirits when someone else crushed them. Oh Dad, I wish you didn’t leave how you did. I won’t stop asking God why. But I know I feel your peace around me when I feel anxious, and your love surrounds me in comfort, brings me down to earth, back to reality, to deal in the proper way you taught me, with strength and courage. Love you with all my heart Papa!! You’re remembered and loved every single day!! Happy Papa Day to you!! I love you. Veronica Leigh

Merry Christmas Happy New Year I so miss you Bill I hope heaven is beautiful love you jean

I know it’s a little late, but I think you know why. My head is full all of the time, although I really try. Here’s to another year, but it always seem so sad. For I used to call you every year, to say Happy New Year Dad! I’d always call right at 12, never missed a year. Now I close my eyes and wish that you were near. Will I ever see your big soft eyes, smile at me again? I hope I do, because God knows I love you, guess I’ll just be patient til then. Happy 5th New Year in Heaven Papa! ~ your little girl

I have fond memories memories of arriving at the 8th Pct and one of the fine men I met was Bill . he soon became one of my "go t guy's) I often think of him and those times. he is blessed with a great family and friends . Hey Bill (0-3) send his memories and thanks to you

Merry Christmas Bill, now you also have Ann to celebrate the holidays with.  Tell her I love her and miss her and said Happy Holidays.
Don

Oh Bill I miss you more and more each day . Have a merry Christmas inheaven I know your with us all today say hi to all of. Your friends and our family’s I miss making our house in NY for Xmas so for now I love and miss you your girl jean

I added this family photo for Christmas Day so you know we are always with you together, surrounding you with eternal love and adoration. Thank you for what you gave to us. Our lives are blessed because of you. Love you forever.

Merry Christmas Daddy. Memories flood back to me of Holbrook Road. The fireplace crackling, the Grinch playing on television, and the sounds of clinking dishes in the kitchen; mom making her tea before we could open gifts. The anticipation of Christmas was almost overwhelming from opening presents to visiting grandparents. You made this holiday so special for us and I’ll never forget how you loved us so much. Papa, may the Lord grant you all your wishes come true. Merry 4th Christmas in Heaven, and if I could see you one more time, that would be the best Christmas present ever. Maybe someday. Love and miss you so much. Lovingly, your little girl, Veronica Leigh

Happy Thanksgiving Daddy. Missing you today as we come together to thank God for all the wonderful things in our lives past, present, and future. I love you papa so much and I thank you for giving me this beautiful life.

Happy Halloween Dad. Today I’m reminded of the Great Pumpkin of Holbrook Road. I recall bouncing up and down on the back couch with Billy peering out the picture window into the backyard darkness just waiting to see his glowing eyes appear in the woods as he bounced around atop the fence. You created my most fondest memory of Halloweens past; one that I love to share every year with your grandchildren. Thank you papa and I love and miss you today and always. Your little girl, Veronica Leigh

Well Bill Ann who loved your stories and sat time and time again writing back and forth with you on the computer has recently joined you in Heaven . Guess she wanted to be there for your birthday party. God bless the both of you, Happy Birthday. Miss you both.
Don

Guten Tag, Gunther! I'm still ticking along @ 81!

I put it down to our having fun and enjoying life!

W.G.W. You provided a disproportionate amount of the memories and fun!!

Thank you Rock E. Python from Wiley E. Coyote!!

Happy Birthday my Dear Friend who I miss very much ! 
Love, Arlene

Dear bill have a great 80th birthday in heaven our grandson is getting married today wish you were here love you so much love jean

Happy Birthday in Heaven, Papa. As everyone says, we miss you horribly. Your wit and charm, your talents and stories, your friendship and love are sorely missed. I personally miss our long conversations out on the porch by the pool. You and I shared some of the best moments together, of which are alive and well in my memory. You have a great birthday, as I am sure you will. I guarantee all of your Police buddies are throwing you one hell of a party. Fred might not approve, but I am sure he will get over it.

Kody and Dallas, as Veronica mentioned, are getting married today. I am sure you are so proud as we all are. They so wish you were here, but we all know you will be watching over them as they start their new life as Husband and Wife. Please be looking our for those prayers we send up your way when we are watching the ceremony. Some for the couple and some for you. Please catch them and hold them close, as they are our messages to you to let you now that you are not forgotten and are missed horribly as well as prayers that you will watch over the new couple. It will be our way of saying "hi" to you and that "we love you so much."

On a side note, we could certainly use your help on the political front. I know you see what is happening and I so miss talking to you about it. This is horrible and disgraceful and could use any advice you can send our way. I know you are not happy, nor am I. If you can muster up a Ghost moment (like the movie) and slap every one of the Biden administration people upside the head, I believe the country would be grateful. I am sure Fred wouldn't mind one bit.

OK...enough of that.....we love you Papa. We miss you Papa. Until we meet again....Godspeed to you. Happy birthday!

Happy Birthday Daddy. I miss you so much. I know I keep saying that, but that feeling will never go away. I looked for you this morning, through the darkness, thinking maybe I will see a fleeting glimpse of you. I can dream. Anyway, I hope Grandma made you a big chocolatey chocolate cake for you and you have a beautiful day in Heaven. We all love and miss you dearly. By the way, your grandson has chosen this day as his wedding date. I couldn’t think of a better date to celebrate a new life together, and I’m sure you are so proud of him and Dallas and we can all celebrate your birthday and their wedding anniversary together every year! Love you with all my heart. We know you will be here in spirit today as they say their I do’s.

Missed you yesterday July 4 just not the same without you love jean
