    Bill you always gave me a hard time over not driving a ford… cars was always a fun discussion with you! I was always impressed with your humor and you were a special person to me with your style of humor! I always left wanting to return and see what you are going to say next… I have to say some of my humor today was driven by our discussions, you will always be remembered as someone very special in my life.

    God bless your soul and love for the rest of the family, as they continue life’s journey with you looking out at everyone, knowing you are around in spirit, thank you for the fun times, discussions and great memories!

    We all live life one day at a time. We never know what tomorrow will bring, but it is very important to enjoy the days we all have together.

    Arlene and family, I shared many tears when hearing of Bill’s passing. Deepest condolences to you all.

    Lots of Love

    My condolences to Arlene and the entire Adams family. I remember we would always stop by Bill and Arlene’s for a visit on our family trips to Charleston. Bill was always carrying on, telling jokes and tall tales. He was such a character and had a tremendous spirit.

    Sends our love.

    Sending lots of hugs to Arlene and the Adams family. Bill was always teasing and made me laugh whenever I would see him. We were never turned down when we needed a place to stay. And when I complemented Arlene’s bread and homemade jam Bill was sure to send me home with an armful of Arlene’s hard work! Rest easy Bill. Love, Ann & Scott
