To our favorite sister-in-law:
Our thoughts are with you all today during this difficult time. Keith and I have fond memories of Bill, his big smile and his great story telling. We enjoyed his visits when he came by when we were in London visiting all of you. Sorry we could not be there today but we are thinking of each and everyone of you. Hugs and Kisses to all, and look forward to seeing you soon.
