Stories of Bill

[Marcel]

Forgot to mention, but for those who want to read all of Bill Runnel's stories I made a pdf that you can download in the sticky thread: Bill Runnels' stories

I got a reply from the family. Mark is Bill's eldest son. I think this is a big 'thank you' for all members of our community and that's why I posted it here. It feels good for me that we as a community could do this for Bill in his last year.
Don't know what to say about his wife. Let's keep her in the family in our thoughts.

Hello Marcel,

Thank you for emailing the pdf file to me. That was very kind of you to compile this for my brother and me. From a quick glance I can tell there are some short stories that I have never read before, Consequently, I am looking forward to reading it.

Dad enjoyed your club so very much. And he spoke of you often, Marcel. He felt appreciated and important because of all of the attention your club gave to him. And to him, you were all his friends. That meant the world to him since he was holed up in his apartment around the clock caring for my mother.

Our mother started hospice care this week. She is not expected to live much longer and she doesn't want to. She misses Dad so much.

Take care Marcel and God bless you for your kindness to Dad and to my brother and me. I have downloaded the pdf. and will likely print a hard copy besides.

Mark

Thank you for posting that. I cannot imagine being married to somebody that long and then suddenly they are gone.

My prayers are well wishes to her and her family.

My prayers and best wishes to Bill's family in this time of great sorrow.

Thanks for sharing. Still can't believe he's gone. When ever I see something that I could have asked Bill about it just drives home that fact....
