I’m still in shock over this. Krista and I were just talking about you on Saturday, about how long it’s been since we saw you, what you may have said when you saw our giant (Aiden). You were always so happy, so full of love, always smiling, always talking about the kids and how great they were doing. This is not fair; not fair for you, Priscilla, Little Ginny, the kids, or anyone who knew you. These past few days have been filled with me thinking back to all the things we did growing up, so many good times. I love you so much. I’ll always miss you, cousin.

The love you had for Priscilla and your kids and your family was amazing. Rest in Peace William!!! love you bud!!!!
