Bill Pleise was my uncle and I have just heard of his death. I am not sure who will read this but wanted them to know what a kind and sweet man my uncle was. After my mother, Lillian died the family just lost touch. I am truly sorry to hear of his passing. I will always remember him.

It seems as if I knew Bill forever. I have wonderful memories of him, it was a great time in my life. but I don't think I ever once called him Jabo, he was a great guy. Peaches
