We were saddened to hear of Bill’s passing. It was only last June of 2017 when we saw him last. He was among the first to greet and welcome us to his Mother’s 90th Birthday celebration.
What a blessing to have known Bill–we will miss seeing him as he was a wonderful person to know.
As we all mourn the loss of Bill here on earth, we find comfort in our Lord and Savior and pray He will keep your spirit strong!
Our love and prayers are with you all!

Sorry to hear of your dad’s passing. It is not easy to have a parent leave this life. Even though it has been 12 years since my father passed away the memory is still fresh. I wish I could be there to give you a hug. I have such fond memories of my association with you in the YSA ward. May you be blessed with comfort and peace.
Love Kent & Adrienne Toone
