On this Christmas morning my thoughts are with the Grover family. I have known Bill since I was a kid visiting Gertie's cottage at White Sands Beach. I always had fun with him and enjoyed his teasing my mother. Over the years, we would meet at family funerals, weddings, reunions and a variety of parties. I could always find him and ask him where someone was in the crowd because enjoyed a view not available to us of shorter stature . I am so impressed with his well written obituary. I knew that he was one of John Filer's key guys at Aetna but didn't know of all the other aspects and activities of his full life. This has been a tough year for everyone. Last night was my 75th Christmas Eve and the first time that I haven't celebrated it with my brothers and sister as we did "German style". Please know that the Rileys join with all our Heslin and Grover cousins in appreciation of all that Bill Grover was and will always have good memories of him. Michael Riley

To the Grover family, I send my deepest condolences. I worked with Bill at Aetna. Over the course of many years, our work intersected from time to time, and it was always great to get to catch up with him. I particularly enjoyed his anecdotes about life in Washington, D.C. and all those cocktail parties! He was a classy guy with a droll sense of humor. I looked up to him in more ways than one. Bill Grover: one of the good guys, one of the best guys. May many happy family memories help you through your sorrow and loss.

Dear Ginger, Roger, Tisha and Tracey....and all the Grovers and Heslins: Im so sorry for the loss of Billy. The obituary was beautiful and reminded me of many of the great things I remember about Billy. One of those things was his great humility. Despite knowing him nearly my entire life, I never heard him speak of many of his great accomplishments..........athletics, amazing professional career, coaching and giving back to help others. Second, of course, was his family. You, he did talk about and, in his own laid back way he conveyed his great pride and love for each of you. Billy always seemed to be happy and easy to talk to. Everyone gravitated to him at family weddings and other gatherings. He sure was a gentle giant who had the great gift of enjoying others and making you feel that way when you were with him. I know you will miss him and he left a very happy legacy with all of his friends and family. Tim Conway

Dear Ginger, Roger, Tracey, Trisha, and family, please accept my sincere condolences on your loss. Bill and I spent many decades together, in a variety of roles, both at Aetna and at Travelers. His obit represents him very well. A gentle giant. He was a very good friend, always extremely dependable, and could be counted upon to be there for anyone. Bill always operated with high character. Along with countless others who knew him well, I will truly miss Bill 'Willy" Grover.
