I’m sorry to hear about the passing of a wonderful man. Peace comes from knowing that you are now with God. My condolences to the family.
I was sorry to hear about Bill’s passing. He was a super nice guy and I always enjoyed seeing him at Max’s. He will be sorely missed. He made the world a better place with his kindness. With deepest sympathy.
My heart breaks for the Diegelman family and their recent loss of “Bartender Bill.” I spent many days/nights growing up at the Diegelman house and Mr. Diegs was part of those happy memories. Will be thinking of all of you during this devastating time.
Please accept my deepest sympathies to all the family. Bill was a wonderful guy and will be missed.
Our sympathy goes out to Diane and family. Will always remember Bill’s warm smile and his lovely garden on Kohlman Drive. Our kids played together as we sat on the porch with Diane and Bill while sipping ice tea. Prayers go out to Bill and his family. Diane stay strong as always.
Our hearts ache for Diane and her family We all were friends for so long and had spent so much vacation time together and thought it would be a lot longer. Bill was a really good guy. We miss him but will always remember the great times we together.
Our deepest sympathy
Bill never passed our home without a toot, wave or smile
I loved wine on the porch in our neighborhood and his open heart kind words, humor and making everyone feel at home. God bless you Bill and heart aches of our loss. Blessing to Diane & Family
