    I was Bill's nurse at Good Samaritan for the majority of his stay there. I worked at night on the second floor. I developed a strong bond with him. He made me excited to come to work at night. He always such a joy to have as a patient. It saddens me to hear that he passed back in march. May he rest in the sweetest peace. He even touched the life of a young nurse with how positive he was through everything he went through. I thought his family should know that.

    Shiela, Mike, Maryellen, Joellen and Family: You all have been through so much - yet you Stay Strong! Your parents are looking down right now and I am sure they are very proud of all of you! Billy's death sucks - not too many other words to describe it. I will always remember Billy as the sweet, caring, fun-loving guy that he was.......always ready with that big smile and a hug! "Lattuada" parties are not going to be same without him. Speaking of parties - just imagine how happy he is right now, having joined your parents, Frank and Liz. God Bless Him and God Bless All Of You! Lots of Love, Pam

    Bill was not only my brother-in-law (by no fault of his own), but my hero. I will miss playing 31 with him. Bill, we will be circling the wagons for ya cowboy.
