Uncle Bill was such a lovely man. I will always remember his smile when I walked in the room at family gatherings, his singing and, his dancing with Aunt Phyllis. Sending love and condolences from Georgia…
Remembering Bill and the wonderful visits from Ireland to his home in Rochester N Y many years ago where we got the most wonderful welcome. May he rest in peace.
