It is with great sorrow that I inform you of the death of my husband, Bill. He was a kind, sweet and loving man.
A native from Maryland, William Edward Bungard, known as “Bill” was born the first child to George and Frances Bungard on February 16, 1947, as his sister Helen joined the family two years later.

In 1995 Bill married Diane Lorenzetti and developed a great love for cruising, especially Italy. They also frequently traveled with their silver van and their four legged child “Lulu." The Van became known as the “widow wagon” because all their ladies friends who would travel along with them.
