Oh cuz we are very heavy hearted. We love and miss you dearly. Give my love to all are love one’s in heaven. You where a brother to me and I’d give everything to have you back, but I know you have never been happier . Sorry about the Grammar lol Love you always, skinny.
Bill always brought a smile wherever he went. He has always been so kind and will be greatly missed.
You were the best dad anyone could have ever asked for. So many of the things I am today are because of you, and I’ll always be so grateful for it. From Star Trek to horror movies to spicy food, there are so many things every day that are going to remind me of you. I’m really going to miss talking to you every night about absolutely nothing. You made the very best roasts, knew absolutely everything about Keanu Reeves, and were always there to give me advice on things from car problems to parenting woes. I miss you so much already, daddy. I’ve already stopped myself from calling you a few times to tell you I’m having a crappy day. I wish I could hear you call me Tateybo and embarrass me just one more time. No matter how old I get, I will always be that little girl that thinks that you are the smartest, tallest guy in the whole world. I love you forever, daddy.
I grew up with Bill and have been close to him all my life. We were just like brother and sister. I miss him so much! Our hearts are broken, I miss our phone talks. My heart goes out to all the family, I will be praying for Bill and the family. May you rest in peace Bill, I love you and will never forget you.

I’ve been friends with bill for 30+ years. I met bill when he worked at jackpot back in the cruising days of levy. We became really good friends, I loved his camaro and he loved my gsxr motorcycle, so we would change rides quite often. I have been finding out all kinds of things about him and my bike ever since then, lol he would tell me little bits at a time. Come to find out he had it at 160 mph, 5 mph faster than i had it, he just told me about that recently, lol. Bill was a true friend, he would take off to florida for a bit then hed be back, sure missed him when he’d leave. Bill and his family moved quite a bit for his dad’s work, but they moved to searcy and that’s when me and my family started calling him searcy bill. I have so many memories with bill that i could go on and on. I loved bill like a brother and miss him so much already. Love and miss my brother.
My Deepest condolences to Taylor and Mark.
And also to the rest of Bills family.
I loved Bill like a brother! Im going to miss our talks.
I’ve known Bill for over 30 years , he had a big heart and was so funny too! I will miss us getting together to shoot our AR15s! He was a Awesome man and Friend.
Taylor , Bill always bragged about you! He was so proud of the young woman that you turned out to be! And he LOVED his Grand babies!!!!
So please never forget that!!!!

He is home now with our Lord Jesus
And I cant wait to see him again in Heaven!
Our hearts are heavy. We’ve known you since birth. Our world just got a little smaller. Love and miss you already. Prayers for the family
