Our Deepest Sympathy for the Tinker Family

JUST A FEW THINGS TO SAY ABOUT MY BEST FRIEND, BILL..... WHEN MY FATHER DIED, HE FILLED THE VOID. IF I EVER HAD A QUESTION OR A PROBLEM, BILL WAS ALWAYS THERE. THE THING I WILL MISS THE MOST IS OUR WEEKLY PHONE CALLS. NO MATTER WHERE WE WERE, FLORIDA OR HOME. IF I FORGOT MY TURN, I WOULD ALWAYS GET A CALL. " PHONE DOESN'T WORK?" WHEN WE BOUGHT OUR LAND, JUST OVER THE HILL; WE WERE LOOKING FORWARD TO BEING CLOSER. HE WOULD HAVE HELPED WITH THE NEW POLE BARN AND THE NEW HOUSE. HE WAS GOING TO BE THE "CLERK OF THE WORKS".SURE HE WILL GET US THROUGH IT SOME HOW. WHEN HE GETS HIS NEW PHONE AND THE TIME IS RIGHT, I WILL GET A CALL. WHEN THAT DAY COMES, I WILL BE LOOKING FOR MY FRIEND. UNTIL I SEE YOU AGAIN, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING. JIM. YOU MEANT ALOT TO ME. MORE THAN YOU EVER KNEW. WILL BE THERE IN THE SPRING.

Becky,

Sending you tons of love, hugs and prayers as you go through this difficult time.

Nancy

You're in our thoughts and prayers. Especially, Mary Lou, Becky, Ken, Billy, Jodi, Sean and Spencer. Make God lighten your sorrow.

Blessings to all

Please accept my heartfelt sympathy at the passing of Bill. His quiet and gentle nature touched the lives of many. May God bring peace to his children Becky and Bill and their families. Also his dear friend Mary Lou take comfort in knowing many share in your loss

So many of our long lost friend and go on to be rejoined once more in the heavens above

Bill was a special kind of guy. Gruff on the outside, but a kind hearted guy on the inside. Our son Axel always enjoyed rough housing with "Grammpa Bill". He often teased Shannon. He enjoyed it when we unexpectedly popped into his favorite lunch spot, Curly's Restaurant, to have lunch with him and my Mom. He was a hard working guy and never stopped "tinkering". We will miss Grandpa Bill.
