  1. So sorry to hear of your dad’s passing. I have so many fond memories of the Bill, Rosie, Bob & Marie quartet. Your dad was such a great friend to mom after my dad passed. Always made sure she joined them on their Johnson House outings. It was wonderful to spend some time with him at my mom’s funeral lunch. Always loved his great sense of humor.

  4. Beikirch Families (Jim, Dan, Laurie) -Your sorrow is shared with all who ever met, or were connected to your family. Bill was a Mentor, a friend, a teacher, and a true guide for parents. Whether spending time together in Chili, in Myrtle, or on Conesus lake, we always cherished the time, talent, and resource of the knowledge he possessed. We have, and will, keep Bill & Rosie dear to our hearts. God Bless you All!
