Eddie and I were in the little boys cottage at Southern Christian Home in Morrilton, Arkansas in 1968/69. So sorry for your loss.
You were an amazing father, anytime I called you were there for me. I hope that you are at peace and happy to be reunited with momma. Don’t worry about me, I got this! I had two amazing parents that raised a strong daughter. I will continue to make y’all proud of me. Your daughter, son and grand babies love y’all.
He was such an amazing friend. He drove the church bus and that’s how I met him. He also took me to 1 of my rival football teams games 1 time. He just was a great man!
Brittnay my thoughts and prayers are with you for comfort and strength. What I knew of William he was a really good person. I am happy I met him at church. I know he is happy to be with your momma now. Just know you have a church family that cares. Hugs Giggles
We’ve always known him as William until RaggMopp gave him the “roadname” Crash. By that time, he had become our “Brother” and treasured member of Iron Horse Church. He was recently voted in as Board Member. We’re gonna miss you, William, but we’ll see you again in heaven.
Our heartfelt sympathies go out to his family.
William always sought me out to get a hug at church.. I will miss William’s hugs. He was a special man. He is and will be missed. Prayers for the family and to all who loved him. We were blessed to know him. I know he is happy in heaven next to his wife and Jesus.
