A dear friend of mine passed away on Friday. I met both him and his wife while going thru radiation last fall. Bill was 70 years old. While I'm glad Bill no longer suffers his passing has cast a gloom over me since. Comes with wearing your emotions on my shirt sleave.
When Mary called me she said Bill often talked about me. He believed he at least lived 70 years and was saddened that I was only 54. Thats the kind of man Bill was. His wife Mary was a great caregiver. I feel sad for her and her family. Please say a prayer on Tuesday at 1pm for Bill & Mary. The services will be held outdoors at a scenic park in Fond du lac, WI. I only knew them for a short time but we shared the same illness. It's a special bond as you all know.
Thanks in advance, Danny Boy
