I met you thru my dad Mitchell ‘Sunshine’ Billingsley who worked at Crown Cork and Seal with Bill. Your entire family is in my prayers.
Sending our love and deepest sympathy to you and your family. Mr. Collins will always be remembered by us. He and his wife were great neighbors and friends.

I had the pleasure of knowing Bill from the can plant/steelworkers days, and we would always visit whenever we would see each other. He was a good man, and a credit to his union, his friends and his family.
Godspeed Bill

In memory of and in gratitude for your honorable military service. May God bless you and welcome you home.
Debbie and Family, so sorry for your loss of your father. May God comfort each of you during this difficult time. I’ll not forget taking your Uncle Skippy up to see your Father and surprise him at his 90th Birthday Party. Uncle Bill was so grateful for that. ❤️❤️. Your Father will be missed. Love you Uncle Bill.

Rest well now Uncle Bill
