Carol Vesel wrote a sympathy message

“We’re going to miss seeing Bill drive by on his 3 wheeler this summer. We loved his sense of humor and our visits with him and Bobby! We have been friends since they lived in Amboy and Ken and Bobby worked together. They were the first ones to welcome us into our Utica neighborhood! Rest in peace Bill! Someday you and Ken will have that cribbage game in heaven! Our sympathy and prayers to Bobby and all the family!”
