Dear Paula, I am sorry for your loss. My family enjoyed watching the video. We haven't seen or heard from Bill in 22 years. It was good seeing that he had a full life with you. Joann

Billy-Boy, you were the perfect husband. I am glad I did not miss "The Dance". You and I were like two peas in a pod. We were always there for each other and had a lot of fun together. We were together through the end. I am thankful to our Lord that we both experienced such a wonderful life together. I have no regrets in our life together. I am going to miss you terribly. All I can say is, I will ALWAYS love you. See you later sweetheart. XXXOOO

To know Bill was to love him. He came back into Paulas life at a time when I was living with Paula. She had just gone through a terrible time. Men were not our favorite of Gods creatures.But he came. And it was like he had always been there. Paula, Bill, Patrick and me, we were family. I always told Paula, someday I would meet my Bill. But he was a hard model to duplicate. I finally found "My Bill". And in true Billy Lester style....the first time he met my husband Jim, he told the man he would kill him.....if he ever hurt me. Guess it scared him enough to be as good a man as Bill. I will miss him and the happiness he brought to all who had the pleasure to know him. Like I said, he is a hard model to duplicate. We will all smile everytime the memory of Bill crosses our minds, and it will, and we will all quote him, and for all who knew him, Bill will forever make us smile.

Bill was such a fun person to be around. Joline and Gary adored him. He was like a "second" Dad to Gary. Gary always spoke of Uncle Bill with much love and respect. Joline also did the same. Paula & Patrick, just know that Bill is in a better place and not suffering anymore. You will see him again, well and happy, in the Great Beyond. For now he is alive in your heart and memories. Our sincere condolences.

Bill was such a great guy, loved and respected by all who met him. I never heard anyone say one bad word about him. The worth of a person is measured by the lives he touched. Bill will be remembered with fondness by everyone who was fortunate enough to have known him.
