    My wife and I as JW what to offer to our sincere condolence to the family who losted there dear one in death. The Bible mentions death is men’s worst enemy in 1Corinthains 15: 26. Also, apostle Paul asures us a hope that we could see our love ones alive again, in 1Corinthians 15: 21- 23. We hope these words will bring comfort to all in the family? Jim & Olga

    Elaine, I am very saddened to hear of Bill’s passing. I enjoyed seeing him regularly, and always looked forward to his stories of the gun club, skiing with the kids when they were growing up and the various antics he had been up to. He was such a nice man. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
