I am Bobbie Kelly and I am a friend of this family for many years. These funds will go to Patricia Brunault for the services of her son, Bill Brunault.

As many of you already know, we lost our friend Bill, Willard, Willie, in a tragic motorcycle accident yesterday. He was killed by a hit-and-run driver in downtown Holyoke. Our gentle giant of a man was taken from us doing the one thing he loved more than anything, riding his Harley. Those of us who knew him the best knew him to be a great son, father, and friend, who would do anything to help his mother, who he lived with and cared for, his children, and his friends. He was a talented auto painter, welder, and bike builder. Bill had a green thumb for gardening, and any animal that crossed his path trusted him to no end, and that proves the type of soul he had. Losing Willard is a great loss to many.

We appreciate help in donating so the family is able to give him the funeral that he truly deserves. Thank you so very much.
