So sorry to hear of Bill's passing. I've been in Texas for so long that I've missed many of the family times. But I remember so well visiting you in Wendover when I was a little kid. Uncle Bill gave me a Phillips 66 hat that I wore until it was in shreds. I'll alwaystreasure the many trips to Grantsville to visit the cousins and of course my favorite Grandma Sutton. Hope you all are comforted during this time.

My love to all of you. What an incredible man. I feel blessed to know him and to have his family become my family. No wonder my Father and Grandmothers always talked about "Emma & Claude"....they were family way back when I was a small one. LOVE Joy Hicks Blanton
