I just heard. So So sad for your family. I love Bill so much. He was my bus driver all through school. I was the first one on and the last off. Bills big smile every morning was the start to my day. No matter what I could count on My mom in the morning for breakfast and Bill to pick me up and get me home.He let me sleep whenever i wanted and protected me when the bullies were doing their best to annoy me.
Such a kind and caring person. Our neighbor, our friend, and our bus driver. Hats off to you Bill!

To the Smith Family:
My condolences to the family on Bill's passing. Bill served the Brooke community as a most reliable bus driver during my time there as principal of the school. Bill was the type of driver that the students liked and respected. I can't remember a single time when he had to bring a student to the office for discipline. He just had that special way with children. Bill will be missed by all that knew him.

Deepest Sympathies to all of Bill's family on the loss of a true kind Gentleman.
Bill was my bus driver and also my children's bus driver. Each and every day that yellow bus would pull up and the friendliest smile would be there to greet us. At Christmas and holidays we would always be greeted with candy or treats of some kind.
I hope you find comfort in hearing what a wonderful man he was to all. Much love
