Open cekasts sometimes can leave a bad last image of the person in your head. You imagine one thing in your head before you go to the viewing and if its a open casket it can completely change the image for you. I’m still not sure if I would want a open casket or not.

Bless you Julie. We will always remember the great times we shared together.

Bill was an amazing person and always had a smile on his face ! To Julie and the rest of the Hipple family, my deepest thoughts and prayers are with you all right now. May Bill RIP and God Bless you all.

I’ve know Bill since we were classmates at St. Thomas in Ft. Thomas in the 4th grade, then classmates at NCH, class of ’62. Although I moved from KY in ’73, I enjoyed our meetings at our class reunions. Bill was always one of the most cheerful guys I knew. Always smiling when we met and asking how I was. He cared for everyone. The community of Northern Kentucky has lost a fine gentleman and leader. No greater contrabutor is there than one who not only taught students but went on to Protect them and the public in law enforcement. God Bless Bill and his family.

Albert Whitehead - Jan 3, 2012

Julie,
I was very sorry to hear that Bill had passed away. He coached me on a Champion 5th 6th grade basketball team at St. Joes around 1970-1971. It was always great to run into him over the years and each time we would talk for a bit about those teams. He very much enjoyed coaching…..and also enjoyed WINNING…….LOL!……which we did a lot of on those teams. He was a good coach, but a better man, and some of the things he taught me have remained with me throughout life. He had a great little grin…..like he knew something nobody else did! I’m very sorry for your loss and feel blessed that he was a part of my life. God Bless. Albert
