My sincerest condolences to the entire Ford family on your loss. Bill will be missed, he had a good heart and a big smile for all. I hope your memories of good times will sustain you. There were many good times. My most recent memory is of Bill sitting in the sun at the cabin, just soaking in all the beauty. He was blessed with a great family.Prior Lake, MN 11/09/2012 9:24 AM
