I wish you peace and comfort during this time of sorrow. (2 Corinthians 1:2-4) The
Bible gives real hope of being reunited again with your loved one. It promises that
your loved one will soon come back to life in the resurrection to a peaceful paradise
on earth. (John 5:28, 29)
Sincerely,
S. Ellis
I gave Bill his Friday Morning Bowling League nick name of “Tug Boat Bill” We all loved bowling with him on that league. I will miss his stories and his easy going attitude. I considered “Tug Boat” a friend. My condolences to Linda and the boys, George and his family, to Ernie , and the whole family.
I only knew Bill these last two years from the Thursday Night mixed league. He had an easy-going attitude, always took care of his dues on time even though worked 3 weeks on and 3 weeks off, and told interesting stories that were never offensive. Bill loved his hunting and took the family with him on his trip last year out west. Thank you to entire family for bowling with us. It has been a privilege. We hope the rest of the family will continue to bowl and honor Bill through it. God Bless to all and eternal peace be upon Bill.
