    We feel blessed to have shared Bill's later years in New Smyrna Beach. He was charming , as so many say but so much more...kind, thoughtful, filled with a zest for living with JOY, funny, (he fully understood the importance of having fun) and most of all LOVING. He will be missed, yet knowing he is free of pain and of earthly confines, we believe his spirit is never far away. God Bless his family. Mary and Billy Gerlach

    I am so blessed to have known this extraordinary gentleman. He touched so many lives, mine being just one of them. At this very moment in Heaven, he is making sure all men are standing when a lady rises from her chair. What a lovely gentleman. He will be missed by all who knew him.
