I am so sorry I cannot be there to express my condolences in person. I have fond memories of time spent with Uncle Bill and the entire Groenwald family. Now the 6 siblings are together again laughing and enjoying each other’s company. My mother had a special place in her heart for Bill and I am sure she was there to welcome him. May your memories of Bill bring you peace during this difficult time.
I am so sorry for your family’s loss my deepest sympathy and so very sorry I could not be there. Sending prayers and hugs to you and your family. Bill will be deeply missed.
