Dear Cheryl and family, I was saddened to hear of Bill's passing. I treasured him as a classmate and friend. I'm so sorry for your loss and pray that your faith and all the good memories will help ease the pain in time. Our only comfort comes from our Saviour and the assurance that we will all be together again.
love and Blessings to you all,
Dotty Roach Overson and my husband Monnie

I worked wit Bill on several extremely complicated property issues and I was very impressed with his ability to see the problem clearly and not get frustrated by all the poor work that had been done before he got on the project. Bill was always very kind and was a great lawyer. He will be missed.
