Mary and family, I just learned of Bill’s passing and wanted to express my condolences. I met Bill in kindergarten and we went to school together at Conestoga Elementary. He was a very nice person and I can only remember seeing him laugh or smile. Just like in the video, which was perfect. I am sorry for your loss. I wish your family the best. Take care. Sincerely, Terri Swann (Rittenhouse)

Dear Bill, Mrs. Harrington and family,
I was so sadden to hear of the passing of Bill. I have such found memories of both of you when you did all the plumbing work for me on so many jobs, for so many years. I vividly remember young Bill starting with you while still in high school. His positive attituide, physical strength, and attention to detail could not go unnoticed while on the job! I can still see that sweet smile of his. My God be with all of you and provide comfort during this most difficult time.

Although I did not know Bill well or for a very long period of time, the time I was privileged to be around him at Conestoga Jaycees meetings gave me great respect for him. My wife and I want to convey our sincere condolences.

I am so saddened to read of Bill’s passing. I cannot say enough good about him. Always so kind and always willing to help anyone in any way! Bill and his family has always been admired and appreciated for the support and love you have always showed my parents, Ed and Mary White. I bet Bill, Ed and Pap are sitting around telling great hunting stories in heaven right now! When I think of Bill – I think of one of the kindest most generous man I have ever known. I love you all, Julie 💔
