Jerry Daley wrote a sympathy message

“Lucy, Jessica and Family - I was heartbroken to learn of Spanky's passing, and have such great memories of the years we worked in Narcotics together. Bill was possibly the most beloved Captain I ever worked with; he brought a smile to everyone's face every day. Please know that I and many others he worked with join you in grief, and are praying for him, and for you all in this sorrowful time. May angels carry him into paradise, and may the Lord's comforting touch be upon you. Jerry Daley”
