Pokey Bear wrote a sympathy message

“Bill had such a big heart, and made a wonderful Santa for many years, and would buy the gifts and wrap them himself, he worked with disabled children for many years and was generous and kind. He will be missed by our family as he always gave to us, and would be ready to hear your problems. I wish to say he will be fondly remembered and we send our sympathy to the family. Beth Hilyer”

Margo Ford wrote a sympathy message

“He was... in every sense... a gentle, kind soul who deeply loved his Janeen, and his kids, and those he "adopted" by connection with those he loved. I talked with him the night he died, it turns out. And, his last words to me were "I love you 'Sis'," and I replied, "I love you, too, Bro." And I do, and did. And, oh, I miss him! What a wonderful sense of humor, and sense of fun he had! He cared, deeply for the home he and Janeen built, and we will had wonderful times there, and in Palm D.”
