My sympathy to the family. Bill was an asset to the Prairieton United Methodist Church. He will be missed by the congregation.

James, Valarie, and David,
My prayers go to God the Father on your behalf. I cared deeply for Bill and we had a nice visit when I was up there in June 2011. I was sorry that I wasn’t able to visit him in the care center these past couple of months. I will miss him. He was a dear friend.

I just found out that my old friend Bill Hook went to be with the Lord last month. I knew Bill when he was in Boy Scouts, High School, College, and afterward. I knew him when he first became a Christian. We had many adventures together in our younger days. I kept in touch with him over the years, but had not heard from him in a long time. My prayers go out for his family especially since they also suffered the loss of his mother last year. Bill was my good friend and my brother in Christ. I will miss him, but I will look forward to seeing him again with joy on Heaven’s shore.
