The heart remembers most what it has loved best. May memories comfort you and bring you peace. May the promise found at Revelation 21:4 also bring you comfort...And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. Deepest sympathy

Bill was such a nice guy. He and his brother would pick up my mom [Billie Kirk] and take her to bridge club and McDonald's for a morning coffee. Mom and I both appreciated his attention.
So sorry for your loss.

Very sorry to hear of Mr. Hope's passing. I had a class or two of his in my Jeff Tech days. He was fair and personable, and was dedicated to his task. Again, my deepest sympathy.

Dear Jane, Frank and family,
This was a shock to me when I read it in the Herald Star today, and I assume that is also true for all of you. I know, Jane, that you and I often talk about enjoying every day that we have, even when we lose someone very close to us, we try to be grateful for what we do have. I think it's great that Bill got to share his interest in bridge with you and that you have been enjoying the game. I have you in my heart and prayers, but I am certain that you and all of the extended family have wonderful memories to help you in the days ahead.

With love and sincere condolences,
Kay Lisle Haines, Powell, OH

Just wanted to send a note. Bill and I were in the Steubenville High School Orchestra together. The picture in the 67 yearbook had us standing together. He was a delightful and bright young man. My prayers and words of comfort go out to his family and friends.
Because of the resurrection... Dr. Keith J. Wise, Pastor (Christian Churches)

i am so sad to hear this, paula. I'm even more surprised. and i know life is going to change. one thing that won't, is all the memories, fun times, laughter, they will always be in your heart, til the day you are together again. in the mean time, they are probably paying cards in that big card room above. I'm sure he will win a hand or two, he got lucky when he got you...and your family...love you...boots
