I will miss the twinkle in his blue eyes and the smile that he had for everyone - it was a pleasure to work with Bill. He had a work ethic like no other and was a kind wonderful soul. RIP my friend until we meet again. My condolences to Carrie and the entire Suyker Family.

God saw you getting tired A cure was not to be. So He put his arms around you And whispered, "Come with me." With tearful eyes we watched you And saw you fade away. Although we loved you dearly We could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, Your tender hands at rest. God took you to prove to us- He only takes the best!
