I’m so sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. My heart goes out to all his family. I worked at Speedway. Bill would stop on his way home from work. We always had a good laugh about something. Want the family to know he talked about his family with a smile on his face. You could see the love in his face when he talked about all of you. He will be greatly missed.
