Dear Peggy, Kerri and Family, In these moments of sorrow, we find ourselves at a loss for words, grappling with loss. Bill was more than a friend to our family; he was someone who brought joy and unwavering kindness to every interaction. Bill's incredible spirit, with his infectious laughter and ability to tell a joke, brought light into even the darkest of days. His hugs, gave comfort like no other and lifted the weight of the world from our shoulders. His wisdom, love, and gentle guidance extended far beyond the confines of his own family to deeply touch ours. He had a special way of making everyone feel included, valued, and loved, truly a gift that made him the remarkable person he was. Today, as we remember Bill, we do so with heavy hearts and with a profound sense of gratitude for the joy, laughter, and love he brought into our lives. His legacy of kindness and warmth will continue inspiring us to embrace life with the same open heart and joy he shared so freely. With all our love and deepest condolences, Mandy and Jay - The Yetters

Peggy & Family, I am so deeply sad to just now learn of Bill's passing. I fondly remember all of the wonderful times we shared vacationing together @ Wildwood, NJ. He was always so very, very kind and I loved his great sense of humor. I wish I could have been there to offer my condolences. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Michelle Syska & Family
