I hope you will be able to see this post. I just learned of Bill’s passing and so wanted to connect with you. Both of you were so dear to me and my little ones, Rita and Sam at the time. I treasured your friendship and understanding of what happened to weave in our lives at the time. Both you and Bill were part of my family and throughout these years and decades, I often found myself thinking of you. Please accept my deepest condolences, as it is very hard to continue life without our dear sidekick. I will leave you my email, evloya@sbcglobal.net. I extend to you my prayers and many blessings. I close with Besitos …..
