Pappy Bernard wrote a sympathy message

“Beth, Gwinn and the entire family of Bill. My deepest sympathy to each and every one of you and my apology for having failed to visit him before his untimely passing.    This man DEFINED humanity, his unending help for any in need of his assistance, his rationale to quiet those in near panic and any assistance he could ever offer. We will miss him for certain and hope to share the pain of his loss with you and all his loved ones and see that smile as he is embraced by the arms of our Lord.”
