William J. Foley

Bill was a loving husband, father and grandfather. He loved life and was an avid Eagle fan. He liked reading and listening to country music. His favorite television show was Law and Order which he would watch even if he has already seen the episode. Vacations to Bill meant one thing…Wildwood, New Jersey. He loved going there and enjoyed riding the Cape May Lewis Ferry.

Bill got sick in December of 1999 with emphysema and COPD. In the early stages, he was able to get around and have a normal life but in 2003 his condition slowly got worse. Bill’s trips to the hospital became more frequent and on November 15, 2995 he entered the hospital for the last time. Bill passed from this life on December 22, 2005 leaving everything that could be used to the Gift of Life.

Bill left us so many memories and he also left his “famous” smile which we see in our Grandson Ryan who was born the following month.

In the rising of the sun

And it’s going down

WE REMEMBER YOU.

In the chill of winter

And in the warmth of the summer

WE REMEMBER YOU.

In the beginning of the year

And when it ends

WE REMEMBER YOU.

When the holidays, birthdays

And all the special times arrive

WE REMEMBER YOU.

When our hearts are heavy

And the sadness overwhelms us

WE REMEMBER YOU.

So long as we live,

You too shall live

For you are now

A part of us, as

WE REMEMBER YOU.
