Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. Loved my uncle so much and will always miss him. Especially calling him Butch, which was his nick name. Never knew that until many years later. Loved him passion for cars, staying healthy and sports.

  2. Watching Butch’s service with fond memories. Overheard you all hanging out beforehand. The Coopers remain one of the most fun families I know. I’m sure those in heaven are watching and laughing along with you!. I send prayers and condolences.

  3. Bill was a true gentleman and a gem of a man. All his friends loved him, and he never hesitated to do all he can to help a friend when needed. I will miss him very much. I met Bill at the gym about 30 years ago and we’ve been friends since. His smile, kindness and wit were gifts! He was the “mayor of the gym” because of his magnanimous and positive energy. Rest in peace Dear Bill! You will always be remembered!

    My deepest condolences to his sister Diane and to his nephews and neuves.

  5. I only had one conversation with William when he graced this earth, however it resonated with me. I could sense he was a true gentleman, & a kind person, with a passion for life. Our camaraderie was regarding the southern NYC view from his home, at Winston Towers. The words & his voice ring in my head from that phone call, & will ring in my head , always,!1 It was how he said, “ I never had a bad day !”, & I understood, it was all about the VIEW , my friend! May your spirit dance each day in the magical view, in which you relished endlessly, & always will! God Bless you William 🏙️ 🌆 🌃
