Kelly, we are so sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. We remember him as such a kind man. Do you remember us – Val and Doris Goff? We moved from Dodge City to Prescott, AZ three years ago. I e-mailed Rose about Bill when I saw his obituary in the Dodge City Daily Globe, and she told us of his instant death – no suffering and now with his Lord. God Bless you and your family. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.
Dear Edwards Family: I worked at the Hospital In Dodge City, Ks taking care of the ground’s and regular Maintenance there for 17 year’s, I new Mr. Edwards because i’d see him in the building or outside walking in , he was a real friendly man alway’s smiling , we use to have some pretty good talk’s, bout the hospital, but i could alway’s tell he had a real passion for our Lord Jesus Christ, he would say gene keep up the good work and God Bless you, sometime’s he would say peace be with you, that’s what a real man is all about, not afried to speak the word of Jesus , he has Jesus in his heart, and i’m proud to have known him. i know you will miss him, but you know like myself he’s in good hand’s with our savior, Jesus Christ!!!!!!! May God Bless your Family and comfort you in the day’s ahead. Christ Peace be with you Gene Bunker

Dear Kelly: Kent and I were saddened to see of Bill’s passing in the Globe this morning. We send you our deepest sympathy. We have such good memories of you as our neighbors.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficulty time. With our deepest sympathy, Kent and Marcia Henrichs
We were so shocked & saddened to hear of your loss! Bill was one of our most favorite drug reps & we thought the world of him! He always had a funny story or joke & was always so pleasant & cheerful. He talked several of us in to biking across Kansas, which we haven’t quite accomplished yet, but we will. He made it sound so easy!! & we admired him so for doing it numerous times. He talked most though about his family & how proud he was of each of you, especially his grandkids! We feel like we know you even though we’ve never met! We will keep you in our thoughts & prayers & may God comfort you now & in the difficult days ahead. With sincere sympathy & love, His friends at the Kiowa Clinic, Kiowa, Ks Marlene Kruckenberg Janie Rathgeber Patty McNamar Brenda Moorman DeDe McWilliams
