Hi Billy, I miss you so much and laugh when I think about all the fun we had in the past couple of years and the blast we had the last time you came to visit me. I cry when I think about how concerned you were about my health and my illness and yet your the one who left this life first. You, my friend will never be forgotten. Love, Sue</b></font><br><br>

Hi Billy:
I miss your flirting smile of yours that you extended to everyone that you met. I think this picture of you in court will tell it all to the jury and the judge. I look back now and realize how hard it was for you to trust anyone after dear Jack passed. I wish I had met him. I'm sure you were quite a different person back then. Confident and truly happy with your life with Jack. You and I seemed to have a hard time hitting it off as just friends. I get the feeling that your wall you put up to protect yourself was to be permanent as that seemed to me the only way you could cope. I don't think your therapist even knew your dark side. You covered it up so well. I think she really let you down for help. But you in turn, only showed her the side you wanted her and your Middlesex friends to see. I always wondered why you never got your driver's license. When you drove my car you seemed to be okay with it. I often wondered if it was the written driver's test that scared you. Were you struggling with dyslexia along with everything else? I'll probably never know the answer to that question. It is nothing to be ashamed of. Some of the most famous people have had it. What a difference in your life after Jack if you could have been more independent with your own car. You were caught between a rock and a hard place. But of course you did have so many Middlesex friends that truly cared about you and wanted to help you. But your chronic alcoholism was your dark side. That's when your bad choices were made. We all saw you going deeper and deeper into that black hole and you had to be the one to stop it. It had to be you that made the choice to get help for yourself. We couldn't do it. You had to admit it to yourself and that would have been a new beginning for you. There are always consequences to the choices and actions you make for yourself. To die so young at the hands of a career criminal should have never happened to you. I shall always cherish our time together on the week-ends. I think you really enjoyed getting out of your apartment as much as possible. I'm glad I could give you that. I shall never stop missing your laugh and that Maine accent. I always wanted a big brother and only you would have been my only choice. I love you Billy. And I'm glad to have had the opportunity to have our lives cross hear on earth. But it won't be last time either. We shall meet again on the other side. Love always, Sue</b></font><br><br>

Hi Billy:
It's been 79 days since you have been taken from us. It still feels like yesterday. Time will never make it better for me because of the brutual way in which this cold blooded monster took you from all of us at Middlesex. I never realized how vunerable you were until this happened. Everytime I go by that boarding house you lived in, I cringe. If I had known how bad things were, I would have you staying with me so Phillip would never get near you. I would have driven you to Maine myself, to make sure you were safely "HOME". After Jack died, you were never the same. You were like a young child who needed constant guidance. You always told me you never wanted anybody and I really feel you were very confused. You always used to say to me, "I'll never find anybody like Jack." I realized over the time I knew you that you never wanted to be hurt again by anybody. I wish you had stuck to your convictions because you would still be with us today. Thank you for your visit on May 30th, at first I thought it was my cat jumping up on my bed, but your cologne was everywhere! You were always a good listener and you came to me when I so needed you. Please visit me in my dreams whenever you and Jack are near. I know you're not truly gone in spirit and I'll always need you by me. I hope you hear me, I talk to you all the time. I don't understand why you had to have such a tough life. Nobody deserves what you went through. God bless you and Jack forever and I promise we will meet again. Love you, Sue

Dear Bill:
It still astounds me to this day why families shun their sons and daughters just because of their chosen lifestyle. Well, it's their loss. I was blessed to know Bill from Middlesex Hospital in 2003. I needed someone to vacuum due to physical health problems. Bill was having some financial problems and I thought why don't I help him out. I reaped the rewards. Not only did I gain a handsome good smelling friend but I no longer had to be chased by MY dust bunnies. The extra cash for him also worked. Our family joke was I would do the grocery shopping while he did my vacuuming. I'd come home and find him already done cleaning and relaxing on my couch, so I would always say to him, "Honey, I'm home, what's for dinner?" We'd both crack up laughing. Bill would make his foster mom's "frog in a hole" for an early lunch brunch. He was a fantasic cook and home decorator. He gave me some hints on my townhouse. Bill had a very sensitive side. He would always tell me he had nobody and that's why he didn't like Christmas.How sad, because he had family! But he did get invited out to friends and co-workers homes for the holiday if he was lucky.That always bothered and saddened me.He never seemed to get the support he needed after his beloved Jack died very unexpectedly of a heart attack. Bill was never the same after that.
He trusted the wrong friends on the street and for that he was brutally taken from all of us who truly loved him. Don't worry Billy, Phillip is going to rot in hell for what he did to you and to our shattered hearts. If the judicial system ever lets him up for parole, I promise you we you're Middlesex family will tell the judge otherwise. He will never get a chance to murder again!I do hope that Sandy is able to get your ashes and Jack's so we can take you to your favorite beach at the Cape. You have already earned your wings now fly with the wind and be free.
I will miss you always, Bill.
Love,
SUE</b></font><br><br>

Dearest Friends and Family of Bill - I only met bill a couple of years ago on a personal level. However, I have know of him for longer through my Mom, his co-worker at Middlesex hospital, Sandra Reynolds.
First I am horrified that something so heinous and devastating could happen to such a kind and caring person. I spent a number of days while visiting Middletown hanging out with Bill, chatting on the phone, having dinner and meeting a mutual friend, Joe, and going out dancing. I never would have dreamed that something like this could have happened.
Bill made a lasting impact on my Mom's life and I am forever greatful. I heard many stories about the love of Bill's life - Jack and all that they had done during their life together. What wonderful stories and memories they had built. That is what life is all about. It is tragedies such as this that drive that point home even harder and more directly. Bill did not care what people thought or how they felt about his lifestyle. He was a very proud person and never held his head in shame.
I hope that Bill is able to be placed with Jack's ashes and be spread over their favorite beach in the Cape where they spent so much time.
To Bill's family - please make sure that you do this. This was a true wish of Bill's. We had this conversation on several occasions. I am sure if you are not willing some of his friends will do this. Help to make one of his wishes come true - please? Jack, truly was the light and love of his life. You can take a look at the pictures of them together, especially the ones with Bill dressed up - they are great and Jack loved those times and so did Bill.
Although we were just friends, Bill holds a special place in my heart as he helped my Mom to understand that being gay is OK. Not only, OK, that good things can come into our life.
Through Bill's death we all can learn a valuable lesson. That lesson can be the same or something different to everyone of us. Be open to what it teaches you or leads you to believe. Allow that light and that smile to lead you to your beliefs.
On a personal note, for me it would have to be that of unconditional love, accepatance and friendship. From the on-set Bill offered this. I hope that I can pass this on to someone and oay it forward in Bill's memory.
Remember to tell those special people in your life how much care about them and love them today for tomorrow may never come!</b></font><br><br>

I just can't seem to get over this horrible loss in my daily life. I can't believe you are gone. You always made me laugh and you brought so much joy to each of us that you worked with. How can we truly say goodbye? We can't... and I guess that is what is bothering me the most. Goodbye is forever in your case as we all know it but we will see your spirit in so many things we will see everyday that will remind us of you. We hope to have you a memorial like you wanted for you and Jack if anything ever happened to you. Well is did and we only hope and pray that we can take Jack and you both back to your favorite beach on the Cape. I see you in my mind strolling on the beach with that smile and the happiness you deserved to have again and your with Jack. Wish I'd have known him personally, but since you told me so much about you and him, I felt like I knew him through you. What the love of my life is like with my husband is the same thing you said as what you and Jack had.
I met your family and they are truly devistated by all this too but there is nothing they can do either to help with it but they won't let it go til it is all over and neither will all your friends here! God love ya kiddo, I miss you so much, you were so happy all the time that you'd make my bad days turn into a smiling one just by tapping on my window of my office and our small quick chatter sessions. I will truly miss you.</b></font><br><br>

The days are longer as I wait to hear more news on you Bill. I know you are here in spirit and you will be here with us until your case is over.
God has you and Jack in Heaven now and you can be with the love of your life and he was still the only love in your death.
We know you only wanted to finally start your life over and find a new relationship but you just found the wrong one and when you realized it, you tried to run from him. He wouldn't let you go. He took you from us in a horrible way and he truly will pay someday.
I know you wanted to go to Maine and Maine Medical Center would have been truly lucky to have you since we were working on getting you a job there. That way when you left us willingly in June to go back to your foster father's home that you'd be able to start fresh there. What a loss that would have been for us all but to have been taken in such a criminal way, you didn't deserve it. We loved you very much each in our own way.
May you and Jack walk the streets of gold in Heaven and find that beach at the end of your rainbow. You WILL BE MISSED. One day we will all be together again and until then....our love and thoughts will always include you. We love you and always will.
May God be with your family and your friends and may we all remember to find the happiness that we each had with you and treasure that memory. God be with you as you with him. A special love always, your dear friend Sandra.</b></font><br><br>

My heart is so heavy with the loss of Bill. His family at Middlesex Hospital will never forget his joy, his hugs, his fun ways of making everything somehow turn out with a happy ending. Such a shame that his life ended with such a tragedy. His life has been shared so freely with many, many of us that we know he will be here on earth in spirit until Stoney pays for his murder. What a horrible way to die for a man that lived such a happy life with his Middlesex Hospital Family of Friends.
I miss Bill every day and his joy and laughter will be with me forever after.</b></font><br><br>

So sorry to hear of your loss. I was Bill's hairstylist for a year and some. I just wanted to say that he was a wonderful man and such a pleasure to be around. I am honored to have known such a wonderful man. He touched a lot of people's lives with his outgoing and loving heart. I really am going to miss him. He is well loved and will be well missed. Again I am so sorry to hear of his tragic death. My prayers and thoughts are with all of you.</b></font><br><br>
