  7. My deepest condolences to the family of Bill.
    It was truly an honour and such a blessing to have known you, Bill. A true gentleman in every sense, kind, humble, and always carrying that beautiful smile. No matter how you were feeling, whenever I asked how you were, your answer was always “perfect.” You never complained, and that strength and positivity will always stay with us.
    I find comfort in knowing that you are now reunited with your beautiful wife, Jen. Together again, watching over all of us. You will be deeply missed, your warmth, your smile and the quiet grace you carried every day.
    To Bill’s family, please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time. May you find comfort in the love, memories and the lasting impact Bill has left on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. 🕊️
