Many blessings and prayers to the Frein families. “Mr. Bill” will be missed by so many but 3 little neighbor kids next door will really miss sitting on the swing and kind visits.
Prayers to your family at such a sad time . Mr. Bill was sure one special man I always enjoyed taking with Mr.Bill when I would come visit my three grandchildren next store . Ivy ,Fritz and Elton all were very fond of Mr. Bill ❤️
I interacted with Mr. Frein on the Crestwood Fire Board. At the last meeting he attended, he was excited to show me photos of his grandchildren. He beamed with pride as he showed me his treasures. Bill was a good, happy man, and I was pleased to know him. Peace be with his family, friends, and all those who were privileged to make his acquaintance throughout his long life.
