Mr. Bill was a riot when he stood and testified, with a time limit of course :). What a wonderful blessing he was to us all in the construction of the new sanctuary. We also had some great visits in the cabinet shop at your home in Lakeland. God Bless You All…In His Love, Wayne LewisBartow, Florida

  3. "Papaw" was a great man, and we will all remember him for that. He could be described as passionate, because whatever he did, whether it be providing for his family or serving the Lord, he was always 110% devoted. I will miss him.Susan

  4. I am so sorry for your loss. He was like a second grandfather to me during my childhood. He will be remebered as a man full of life who loved the Lord and his family.

  5. I will never forget the times and opportunities to talk and most of all listen to Bill's advice and stories. He will be remembered as one of the greats in my eyes. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Horn family during this time.

  6. My Papaw was a wonderful man, and worked hard all of his life. He always made sure we were all taken care of. I loved him like a father, and he will be missed by many people, and was loved by many people. I love you my sweet Papaw, and will never forget you. Rest in Peace forever<3 Your loving Grandaughter, Jennifer

  7. I've known Bill, Papaw, for ten years. I will always remember that he was a strong family man, and always made sure he provided for them and others. I remember going to his home in LK. and offered me some fire wood from his own collection. A very generous man. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Your Grandson-inlaw, Michael Ford

  8. My deepest sympathy to Martha and Greg. I have many memeories of going to the house on Shepard Road and talking with him before we decided to have kids. He said "If you wait until you are financially stable to have children, you never will". This comment has always stuck with me and one of my fond memories of Bill. My prayers and thoughts go out to all of you. Love, Wanda

  9. Mr. Horn was very dear and special to me. He treated me like a daughter and welcomed me in his home since 1965, when Sandy and I became friends. He gave me the house key. I enjoyed many days, nights and meals around their table. He did his best to teach us God's love. He is missed. Love Kay
