Bill was.such a kind man. He worked so hard and loved his family dearly. I can remember as a teenager he would get off work and my dad, Peck Dowell, Bill and other family members going down to river and cutting and baling hay unto the wee hours. My prayers go out to Becky, the children and other family members.
