Dear family, your Dad will be really missed. He had such a wonderful voice and smile. He and your mom were such a loving and wonderful couple. You know they're now together forever. So sorry we couldn't come to the Memorial, but we'll be there in spirit.
Love you, Barb and Jim

I send love and sympathy and our prayers to you in this sad time. Bill and Eunice were wonderful traveling companions and we have countless fond memories of time spent with them. I am truly sorry we cannot be with you now, but Myron is having yet another surgery on Sept. 18 and is in a lot of pain, so I'm at home, focused on him. Since Oct., 2016 he's suffered a stroke, had congestive heart failure and heart surgery and now for 5 months has ineffectively been dealing with a horrible infection from the heart hardware. We'll think of you all on Saturday.

Family, once again we have lost another solid citizen and friend in this town. Both of your parents lent so much to the vitality and strength of Geneseo. Music, business, and outreach into the community at large were part of what makes this town so great. And your parents were part of that heritage. Missing them both at activities including the QCSO concerts. May they rest in peace.

Dear Bean Family!
I will not ever forget that one Saturday AM when Eunice was nearly due to have her last child and she let out a frantic voice for me to put my piano books down and come to her aid. [It appeared that your famly kitty was in labor with her umpteenth litter of babies; your dad always delivered them, yet he was at work]! I got out of having my piano lesson and was able to adopt Thomas Jay from that litter. Bill took pride in everything around him, such a special man for such a special lady, your mom.

Sincerely,
Jeanie

Your folks were bright lights in our church family and our community. Your dad always had a twinkle in his eye. So many memories from church, the bank and around town. He treasured you kids. I loved sitting in front of him in choir at church listening to his beautiful voice. We know through faith that you will be reunited in God's time. God bless, Mary Jane
