My dad, David E. Gerald and Bill were close friends from their Coast Guard days and remained friends until my dad's death in 2002. Uncle Bill continued to "check up on" my mom until her death in January 2011. I have fond memories of visiting "Uncle Bill" and "Aunt Willie Jo" when I was a child. (Cookouts at his sisters, the pool, church-good times!) I had Bill on my mind and decided to look him up and give him a call but was sad to see he passed on last year. Life is short. Love the family you have when you can! I'm confident your fond memories of Bill are a comfort and that he is resting in peace with Aunt Willie Jo and all their little bullies!!!! With Love, Susan Gerald Fikes

My deepest sympathy to the Carmichael Family, I am sorry to hear about the lost of Mr. Bill. May the family find comfort to know that God Promised a resurrection for both the Righteous and the Unrighteous. John 5:28,29 and act 24:15. I will keep the family in my prayers.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your dear loved one. Losing a loved one is very hard to cope with. One thing that he helped me through a loss is Revelation 21:3-5. This was so encouraging and provided me with a lot of hope. I hope this information helps you all as well.

My condolences to the family. May you find comfort in the scripture at Revelation 21:4 and the website jw. org.
