I've worked with young people for over half my life so far and I recognize a person who has a call to pass wisdom and love on to the next generation. God bless you.
I have for 28 years on the streets year round, used my 25 cent snow cones as a draw to get to witness to kids and be the sheep dog, and try to keep the youth out of the hands of Law enforcement. I have won some and lost others,
I live in mccook now, and i love this town so much, i dont think i could ever leave!!!!!!!!!Mostly cuz' most of my family lives here. And I just love this little town!
No, he did not live in McCook, from the news paper photo I am sure I had seen him around
but very little and he did not stand out in my memory. or cause trouble at or near my candy van.
I watch for crazies in the parks as I sell, mostly guys with cameras or hitting on girls way to young for them, along with trying to keep kids from fighting. see my video (Aint a teacher, preacher or Cop)
I didn't know her very well but my cousin was her cousin, and I still cried for nights. I have TONS of family in Mcoook and I'm sure you know some of my little cousins. Rip Kailee-3
I know most of the kids in McCook, was city Santa for 22 years for Free. plus was a soft ball coach for
3 years, plus umpireed 140 games for free, and of course I have been Mr. Bill for 28 years, year round.
I have seen many great kids, as well as some that needed a bit of direction. When a kid does something stupid, I I never chew them out, but only say (did you learn anything) see every day we have free will,
Mr. Bill, I always enjoyed your sno cones and friendliness when I was a child..... I think you are truly wonderful! You genuinely care about these kids and you are one in a million.... thanks for all you do.
Mr.Bill, i just have to say your dedication to our children is very inspiring. I remeber as a kid looking forward to lunch to come get a star crunch from Mr.Bill.... and know as an adult your still brining smiles to our children. What happened is truly devistating. However you bring hope to our children. I remeber a very hot day being in Norris Park with my daughter , she was trying to ride a bike with out training wheels. As she stomped her feet in frustration you approached with a snowcone :)
came out of an ophange, so I know what it is to have nothing, many even after I was adopted looked down on me including relatives. As for being good to the kids, I was Santa for the city for free for 22 years before my disease forced that to stop because of noise. But what a gift GOD handed me, I treat kids as equal, No kid wants to be talked down to, nor preached at. Trick it to teach without them knowning,:teach with laughter and they will never forget: ( Mr. BILL)
*Repost*Hey Mr. Bill its me ethan i used to come to your van at Central can you subscribe to me and the main thing im wanting to say is that its sad hat happened to Kailee Clap. My sister said that she was driving near the murder area and her dog, Tank. was barking like a mad man.

wow.. sorry to hear about the kid but what a good story about the kids and in the dog.. ive been watching all of your videos, finally found someone that tells truthful/interesting storys
Very sorry to hear about the shocking murder of a young lad. One story that I thought of after hearing your story was the murder of Jon Benet Ramsey in Boulder, Colorado back in 1996. I'm sure its heartbreaking for the family and also yourself. I hope the perpetrator is apprehended. Things like this really make you wonder what this world has come to....things are looking rather bleak.
Its eerie how everyone's lives take different paths. Some of the friends I grew up with go involved with the wrong group and most ended up being murdered very young. Bad choices will be reaped in the future. The same can be said with the state of the world. All the banker, political corruption will be the demise of us all.
Mr. Bill,
I've worked with young people for over half my life so far and I recognize a person who has a call to pass wisdom and love on to the next generation. God bless you.

older than dirt I feel, work nights, plus part time jobs so I can run the candy van 7 days a week
and lucky to break even, has given me the chance or the right to be around kids and be a street preacher
if you will not so much on GOD but common sence for 28 years.
course I am the first to say I learn as much as I teach with each new year I see many good and
a few bad things that shock this aging man.

every generation has a few so evil as to kill without mercy, will it ever change?
not in my life time, but my life's work of 27 years now, is to watch Mccook kids and when they ask
give them directions and even a little wisdom without preaching, plus give them a 25 cent snow cone or a dead cow (beef jerky) for a quarter.
