Bill, I met you at therapy, recovering from strokes myself and we became fast friends with our dueling inappropriate Irish/ Italian humor, and how you would tell me how many arm curls you could do, and how many lbs you were lifting.Therapy is not the same but I understand,God has called you.
May your path home be straight and true, Like a arrow shot into the Sun.

Bill worked hard and played hard and always had a sense of humour. We will miss him. May he rest peacefully during his final journey home.

Based on the few moments that I got to share with Bill all I could say in my mind is “what genuine, funny and charismatic person” I’m talking to. My utmost respect to him also for having served this country.

Soooo sorry, Bill was a very good friend. We had many meals with him and Dorene. He always had a smile and a positive outlook. Our thoughts are with Darlene and family at this sad time

Bill will be greatly missed. As a retired air traffic controller, he won’t be there to tell me where to go! As a golfer, I will miss him out-driving me. I will miss our annual bets on the ARMY NAVY game. So many good memories. Our sincerest condolences to Darlene and family. Bill has made a difference in so many lives. We are grateful to have been friends.

Bill,
I wish you an amazing journey to the heavens. Thank you for the opportunity to provide physical therapy to you for seven wonderful years. We have worked through good times and bad times. You always showed strength, determination, and courage with a strong backing of your wonderful wife Darlene. Thank you for always being a gentleman, thank you for making my job enjoyable, and thank you for becoming my friend. You were truly loved by so many and blessed with an amazing family. I truly miss your humor, smile, and laughter.

Many years ago I met Bill at Eastlake Library as “Mr Antiques Roadshow”! He was an honest appraiser and really knew his stuff. Pete and I became friends with Darlene through the Farrell’s. It was an honor to know him. Rest in Peace🙏
