This news is a painful blow to my heart. To the entire Sitkiewitcz Family my deepest sympathy for the loss of a great person and dear friend. I always apprieciated any time our paths crossed anywhere around the world cause I knew Bill always had my back no questions asked and he knew the same from me, coming from a well traveled and experienced security person I have known and worked with Bill for over 25 years he was a dedicated and proud man. From a one man gang to another I love and respected Bill very much. I will miss him dearly. There was no place on earth I would not hesitate to go to or situation to engage in with Bill by my side.. Hill you have earned your place in heaven and now you walk with GOD.

Dear Kiki & family,
I was sorry to hear about Billy's passing. I sat back and remembered some of the special times with my younger cousin.I watched Bill, Larry & Laura when my Aunt Marie worked at Bankers Life. He would sometimes want me to come and fix a problem he had gotten into. He always made me smile at some of his antics. Just had to love him. I am sorry I did not know Billy was sick or I would have come to see him. Again my deepest sympathy to all of your family. Bill was special!

Billy, you have always been the sweetest, kindess man. We lost contact years ago, I tried so hard to find you when John was losing his battle with cancer and I couldn't. I finally found you and you were in remission with your cancer. But that changed. I really wanted to see you one more time so we could talk about 'the old days' and that didn't happen. But I have gotten to know your family, and what a great family you have! I'll see you soon for the last time, my friend. Always loved you! Thanks for being my friend and John's and Joe's - who called you uncle Billy. Hope you've met up with John and Scarps. And Kiki and family, you were truely blessed to have Billy. All my love to you, Billy and to your family.
