To Bill Jr., Michael, Rebecca, We were very saddened to hear of the death of your dear father, Bill. I think of St. Thomas More who had said "Death comes to all of us, even for kings". Although we know its truth, it is something we all have to deal with in our own way. I hope you will remember all the good and funny things that happened in your life with your Dad. Being a spouse and a parent is quite a vocation and we all have our ups and downs and, I am most sure, the balance sheet will show that your dad always had the good of all of you in his heart. I will always remember how good he was to your mother, especially so during those last years when she was so incapacitated. He had a lot of tough love in him and I am sure God, in His mercy and goodness , will reward him for a life well lived. Love from your cousin Brenda, David and all the Hegarty Family.
