Your dad was a very kind and wonderful man. He was a father-figure to me during some difficult years...he even took me to Lancaster to get my license and had me join the golf team at EAHS. I have many warm memories of him. You girls were blessed to have him as a dad. Prayers for you during this time.

Mr. Goss was a fabulous teacher! Caring, funny.........I think of him often.......he taught me to be a good driver. I remember him taking me for my license. My sympathy to the girls.

Kelly and Debby ,
I just learned of your Dad's passing.
We did not stay in touch as much as much as I wish we had. Through college and baseball we had some great times together. We used to joke about Dr. Bernstein 's very difficult history class. I would look over at your Dad and he was usually tugging on his eyebrows . (stress) :-) Then we would laugh at each other . His name has been in my prayers for some time . Now God has the company of
a great guy .

I have so many good memories of Bill. We met at Honey Creek Inn when I was caring for Ann Turbett. He would stop to visit her almost every week when it got to hard to take her there and it made her so happy. He also would get everyone to sing Happy Birthday to anyone that he found out was having a birthday at Honey Creek including my granddaughters who would beg me not to tell him but he would always find out! He also gave them lessons in speaking Dutch..He was always so caring warm and friendly.I will never forget that about him!

One of the greatest guys I've ever met. Growning up with the Goss family was so much fun in our younger years..and we became true and trusted friends together. Bill was fun to be around..weather on the golf course, hunting turkeys or just hangin out, Bill was a gentleman .... with class and very well respected amoung his peers. His legacy will live on, on the big screen. "Witness" will bring a lifetime of renewed joy to all who knew him...God speed Bill. KK

Kelly and Debby: Please accept our sincere condolences on the death of your father. It was not too many years ago that we lived above your family in the apartments in downtown Elizabethtown. Enjoyed being with your Dad and Mom, and the two of you when small. Please take care.

I am saddened to learn of Paul's passing. As a former student I remember his care for us. Everywhere I saw him he had a wonderful sense of humor. May God bless his family as they grieve and give them comfort in the words of resurrection to eternal life.
