Williams family,
My heart goes out to all of you. I always try to imagine the reunion in Heaven and that comforts me. Knowing a loved one is greeted by those that have gone before brings a measure of comfort. Hold your memories close. Continue to honor him by speaking of him often, cry, laugh, tell stories and keep him alive in the hearts of those near and dear to you.
