    A New Dead Man to join the ranks

    Good evening Wall a new Dead Man, Uncle Bill. Has joined those who have gone before.

    My Wife's uncle passed away this morning Sadness and Joy keep washing over us. Sadness at his passing and joy he did not suffer. Bill was a Master Plumber who said few words however if you asked a heating question he always had the right answer.

    Uncle bill always encouraged me as I started my career and when he felt I was ready he gave me his threading equipment. It came with only one STRING! " I must always use them with as a professional"

    As we all travel to pay respects, Cry a bit, Share Joy and gather as a family. Your Prayerrs will be felt by each one there.

    Thank You all for joining with us.

    My condolences, Terry

    to you and your family. As your wife probably knows, uncles are particularly hard to lose. They are like fathers as they sometimes are, like brothers, because in fact they are. And the combination is often priceless.

    I hope he had a long life. Certainly it was well-lived and he, well-loved.

    Rest in Peace

    Be proud to have had Uncle Bill in your life. Too few like him now and not many coming to fill his shoes. I wish there were more like him.

    God Bless, Darin

    The memory of your dear uncle will never leave you. It will be nice to feel it every time you'll be using his cherished hand tools.

    I hope it gives you comfort.

    New Dead Man

    Terry,

    I offer my condolences to you and your family as well as to the plumbing and heating industry. Far too many "OLD TIMERS" didn't want to pass on their knowledge to the new blood for fear that they would surpass them. Only the smart and truely skilled old timers felt secure enough to pass on what we needed to continue in their shoes. I'm glad that you were lucky to have experienced true greatness to help you be a professional.

    God Bless you and your family.

    Anthony Menafro


  • Sorry to hear of your loss , but he does join so many truly great ones that have passed and are now making sure heaven is a warm , comfortable , safe place for all of us someday .

    I know my grandfather and uncle (both passed master plumbers) have a few jobs for him up in gods kingdom .

    The first wrench (ridgid 10 " bent perfectly for tub traps ) I received was my grandfathers and I hold it near and dear to my heart .

    sincerely ,
    Ken Resnick
