Hello Ennis.....what hole are you at now??? 9th hole! I'm at the 19th hole waiting for a chat with you. Great thing about golf is the fellowship at the 19th hole. Wonder if the 20th hole is when we meet Jesus! Praying for you as you pray for me. Your buddy...LeRoy

Hi!Bill,
We obviously know each other better on as well as off the stage since our motto may be very similiar...when on the stage there is time to act and time not to act!
Regardless of the bad news we heard about you but you have pointed out to us it ain't so. I will go by your advice.
At least we are glad to get to know you, Glenda and your family.So God bless you all.

ILY,
Janice Couch and Bob Dillman

Hi Bill,

Thanks to Nancy Rarus for forwarding your blog. loved it. You and I had a wonderful history of playing football against each other. I have always loved your stories, the smiles that you and Glenda have, and the kind of disaster at IRS training that I was involved with. smile.

All the best, you both deserve the best life has to offer.

Jim and Holly Macfadden

Ennis,

I have been one of your favourite
fans when I first saw you on
stage in NAD Conference in Ocean City. Now that I saw you on the
blogsite, I see that you remain
the same guy as an upbeat guy. I love you!

Hope you will become the deaf
Tiger Woods!

I was stunned to learn of Bill's illness. I am
reminded by the words of St. Paul: "No man lives for himself, no man
dies for himself...we all live and die unto the Lord." I can imagine
the shock you and the rest of the family may have when you found out
about Bill's illness. I offered a Mass for Bill's health and I pray
and hope that there will be a miracle for his healing. If not, then
may God spare him of suffering and pain associated with this
illness. Kindly give me your home address so that I can send a
card. My prayers and thoughts are with you....and also when I
learned of Bill's illness, I thought of Sharon immediately. Maybe
she is anxious to have her beloved family members with her in the
Kingdom of God, smile. We will be with her sometime soon. With love
and prayers in Christ, Fr. Tom C.

What a wonderful way to keep your long time fans updated. Thanks to my Deaf folks Jim and Nancy Caddell for sharing your VLOG address. Former students and colleagues turned fans, had all but lost contact with you, one of the greatest teacher/storytellers ever to set foot on our campus. Seeing your smile before the camera brings back fond memories!

I am so glad to see how powerful fellowship, camaraderie and Love are working together to pull you through the most trying of times. Rest assured you are loved and we are with you all the way. Take good care and get well soon!

In your travels to Baltimore(Hon) remember TT Diner isn't far from Hopkins. I will gladly treat you to dinner when you are in the area. All I ask is that you bring the ice cream. Your hand packed selections tantalize my taste buds better than anything on their dessert menu. ;-)

Hugs 'n Smiles,
Dave Windley

Bill,

Keep us all posted on what the Lord is doing in your life and the lives of those that loves you! Since you put your full trust in the Lord and FEAR ZERO about anything, you continue to be an inspiration to us all!

Ecclesiastes 3 is one of my favorite Scripture reflecting life itself. There's always a time for one thing and a time for another.

You're in our thoughts and prayer! May the Lord be with you all as He always have been!

Bill and Glenda~ Our thoughts are with you. As you probably know, Patrick was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year. He has gone through all the treatments and is now considered "cancer-free." It was a difficult journey for both of us but we only came out of it stronger than ever. If anyone can do this, you can! We send warm New Mexican hugs full of red and green chile to kill those darn cancer cells.

Warmly, Pat Ercolino & Jen Herbold

What a wonderful way to keep everyone up to date on Bill. We are continuing to pray and know that God is able to do more than we can ask or think. Praise the Lord for the good news as to the treatment. Daisy

Hi Bill,
The picture of you show us with your favorite iron 4...You are incredible guy who can hit 300 yards with your iron 4 while Tiger can't. I am sure that you and Glenda have been enjoying with your grandkids every moment as well as we do with little three boys. Our prayers are with you. George Stewart, our old coworker at IRS is back to work with me again. Hope to see you guys soon.

Hi Bill

It is me, another Bill. Carol and I are praying for you since we heard the news. Even OBDC prays for you and ur family. Jesus is the ONLY answer to the healing process and resurrection of life to those who acknowledge that He is the Lord of the Universe.
Ur BilLOG is great. Keep it up for latest news. I have been waiting and looking forward to seeing you playing golf with us, Deaf Seniors and demonstrating that u are no Tiger Wood.

Hang in there. Keep the faith, brother. We're behind you all the way!
