Dear Price Family: Sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. We had some great times together. They laughed at us at Ocean Isle Beach until they realized that we were catching big fish and they weren’t. The first to use a Loran and the first to live bait fish. We were ahead of the game and laughed about that constantly—- those guys trying to figure out what we were doing differently. I recall the monster we caught that Sheffield displayed in his fish cooler for days. What a laugh! The times that Bill and I spent with our kids on the ocean are memories that I will always cherish. I regret that we did not spend that much time together after we both left the area but Bill was always there in my fondest memories. Bill, you were a good friend for years and thanks for all the memories. Every time I think about the adventures of Bill Price and Lee Weaver, I smile and say to myself, ” it was a great trip”. Bill, may God bless you and your family. Lee
Bill was such a very special person. His wit and mischieviouness was always fun to watch or hear about. Always very engaging in any conversation in which he was involved. He will be missed by many but more so by his family especially his main person, buddy and love Sarah.
RIP Bill. I hope they are prepared for you beyond the pearly gates.
Love,
Jean R Moore and Family.
Sarah and family,
So sorry for your loss. Prayers lifted!
