To the Romans family: I wish to express my condolences for the loss of Bill. For many years we worked in construction and I would see Bill regularly as he poured concrete and would come into the office to order. I would visit him on his job sites. We became good friends. When Bill slowed down we quit seeing each other. Time passed. Please know that I had great fondness and respect for Bill and his passing saddens me. Travis Morrison
