Bill, you were the kindest, sweetest, and most caring father-in-law with which I could have ever been blessed. I will always cherish the last 24 years in which you were a part of my life. Thank you and Trish for giving me such a wonderful husband in Jim.
My favorite stories about you always involve your famous passive-aggressive sense of humor; with a twinkle in your eye, intentionally missing the next turn when driving after just having just been reminded of the next turn by someone else in the car!
You will always be fondly and lovingly remembered.
Jenny

To Trish and Family,
It was an honor to care for Mr.Bill. I only wish I knew him longer, but he left his mark and impression in just a short time that says exactly the kind soul he was. A man on a mission from day one, he kept us all accountable! God blessed Bill with a loving wife and family and I know he has found peace and comfort. May God wrap you up in-loving arms and provide comfort and strength in the days to come.

My deepest condolences to the Weinberg family. I truly enjoyed all those years working with Mr. Bill as a supplier in the MH industry. Mr. Bill taught me quite a bit in my early years in the industry and I will be forever grateful. He was kind, brilliant and compassionate and treated me with respect at all times. He was definitely one of a kind.

I have always enjoyed Bill’s smile which brought so much joy and warmth. Bill had a gentle and kind spirit that was welcoming to all. I fondly remember our delicious family dinners where we told stories and laughed and supported each other. Bill was calming and positive and his spirit will live on in my mind and soul.
