My dear "Aunt Fran, Little Bill, Michael and Laura....I am so very sorry to hear of Big Bill's passing away. He put up quite the fight, but is at peace now...probably rounding up all the Bulldogs in Heaven, as we speak. I have such wonderful memories of spending summers in Starkville and Big Bill was such a special part of those memories. Please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers. I can't get to Starkville this weekend due to business commitments Friday through next week, but will definitely try to bring Mom over later this Spring for a visit. Love and Hugs to all! Beth and Steve
