I was a friend of Bill through TMIY. He always had a great sense of humor & a story to tell in his distinct announcer voice. He was a giving, caring man who was willing to share his thoughts & experiences of life. I think he is looking down & praying for his family & friends.

Our deepest condolences to Bonnie and the Warren family. His passing is a sad loss for The Good Shepherd church community here in smithville, mo.
Bill was a very kind and loving soul. He is one of the few people that I always looked forward to saying hello to and receiving his warm hugs at the church. I lost my father at an early age and very often the Lord would send signs to me of what a good father would be like and Bill showed glimpses of that to me often. He embodied Christ in all that he did. A true model of what a Christian should look like. Full of humility, he was never one to shy away from those who needed help. My husband Jeff and I are grieving his loss deeply; however in our hearts we know that Bill is already with our Lord. I see him smiling; no more quietly suffering. His pain is gone and we have the eternal promise of seeing him again; and oh what joy that will bring us. Thanks Bill for always making me laugh and sharing cheeky jokes with a twinkle in your eyes. May your soul rest in peace and enjoy His eternal embrace until we meet again.
