Guestbook

  1. We are so sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. He was a good and gentle Christian man. We feel blessed to have known him for over 19 years. May God bless the family with peace and comfort today and in the days to come.

  2. Bill Pittman was a good man and a good neighbor. We enjoyed having Bill and Louise as next door neighbors.

  3. Brother Billy taught my Sunday school class when I was a child! He loved the Lord and was a man of integrity! Steve, my heart goes out to your family, but we will see him again soon!

  4. I just found out my father in law passed away. I am sorry Amber and I were not made aware of his passing. He was a very kind man. I do thank them for listing Amber in the grandchildren. I understand not listing me, as Ronnie and I are separated and no one speaks to me But they could have been kind enough to tell us about papa Bill. So we could pay our respects. Prayers
