Bill, Yesterday Sept 1 2015 would have been you 70th birthday' Iathat possible ? But it was. I alwyas think - IF you had lived - what impact would you have made, and if you had had children - what would they have accomplished, those possibilities were taken away from you, and I am sorry for that. I want to thank you for watching over me and showing me you are in heaven still helping whenever I ask for a favor, you Great Fisher and Terry Kilbane will be remembered on my website http://www.angelfire.com/cruci34/art622/pap.html for years to come, hopefully forever. Thank You again

Bill No special reason for this message Just though I'd let you know I was thinking about you yesterday I Can't believe you have been gone 47 years.... Yesterday was July 4th 2015 and my wife and I took our 5 year grand son on a mini vacation - we went to a motel located right on the Caloosahatchee River across from down town Ft Myers. Florida - Why ? to watch the fireworks - the park where the spectacle was held was Directly across the river from the motel. ( good planning ) Before the show started I told my grandson about the friends who were no longer with us because they died so we could enjoy the freedoms we have. Of course he didn't fully grasp what I meant, but someday he will be able to visit the website I built for you and the other who gave everything at bpapa.vze.com..... and read about ALL you heroes. I cried again thinking how you never had a chance to see the fireworks and listen to the stirring music which accompanies the shows and you never had the chance to share time with children and grandchildren. What a shame.

Bill, well it's 12:45 a.m. May 5th 2015 - you were killed 47 years ago today May 5th 1968 The date for this post might say May 4th The time zone must affect the posting I met you in Sept 1965 ( 50 years ago) I remember our days in Sigma Phi Xi fraternity and how we played football against he other Greek orgs. We were he best, we were diversified, we were the only fraternity with so many different backgrounds' rich, poor, black, white, Jew, and christian. Those days were carefree but things change - I hope your death, and deaths of the over 58,100 other U.S. soldiers was not in vain. I know I have asked yo for special favors over the years and my requests have seemed to been answered. It is my hope you continue to watch over and help those left behind here on earth. I visited a traveling wall in Nov 2014 and took rubbings and pictures of your name. I was overcome with emotions and found myself crying as I stood there looking at your name. I have those on the website I built for you and the other of my friends who died over there o many ye#rs ago. I was contacted by some of your family members and other friends who found the page by googling 'Bill Papa Vietnam' We all miss you so much Thank you for your sacrifice and Ask God to help us All..
