James William (Bill) Bean

I worked with Bill at Albertson's for seven years. He was loving, sweet, and kind. He was my friend and is missed not only by me, but by all the people he meet routinely at work. He always had something to say to everyone. I know he is with our Father in heaven, and I would not be surprised, that he is now the Lord's official greeter. We miss him.

Dear Mary Ann and Debbie, I was so shocked to read of Bills demise. He was such a kind man. I know he is with the Lord and once again with his parents. I will really miss him and our conversations about Kathy. He always made it a point to say hello or help me with my groceries. May everyones prayers and thoughts comfort you all. God Bless, Beverly

Bill worked with us for many many years at Albertsons and we as well as others can tell so many fun stories about Bill ! We also had the pleasure of seeing him all dressed up almost every Sunday when we worshipped together at Woodland. He was a big part of our church family and our favorite person to see at Market Basket. Bill loved our twins and we ALL loved him! And everything he didnt tell Michelles daddy he said he was going to tell our preacher!! Bill will be missed Our thoughts and prayers are with his family What a wonderful place he is now in and how happy he must be!

I worked with Bill @ Albertsons for many many years. He always greated me with a smile on his face and a 'Good Morning Ms. Brandi'. I always replied ' Good morning Mr. Bill!'. Then he would tell me he had been a 'bad boy'. I would smile and tell him I just did not believe him because he was Albertson's BEST BOY. He would smile and say he had better get back to work before Ms. Starsky would 'get him'. I guess now Bill is in heaven and helping God-because thats what Bill does- he helps people. I also know God choose Bill to help him with his work because Bill is the BEST BOY.

Bill was so friendly at Market Basket. He often talked of going fishing. Never once did he complain of being ill or feeling bad. He was a delight to visit with as he was sweet and always had a kind word to say. Thank God for him and may he now always be in peace with God.

You have all been in my thoughts and prayers each day. How lucky Bill was to have such a warm, loving family. I am glad his last moments were spent with you all by his side. I will continue to pray that God will heal your hearts with each passing day. It was a pleasure to meet you all. God Bless! Love, Jen/RN

I was deeply saddened to hear of Bill's passing. He was always a joy and delight to visit with when he came to my office. I also enjoyed all the times I would run into him at the grocery store. He always had a smile and a nice word. My prayers are with him and all his surviving family. Bill will be missed.

Bill, I will cherish my memories of our times together. The trips to the bowling alley and your beloved Dairy Queen on Lucas. You are with your "Momma" now and I know you are both smiling. I love you Bill.

Bill made the Market Basket trips fun with his friendly and funny comments - always threatening to "get into trouble" over the weekend. He was truly a delightful guy, and I will miss his bright face at the store.

I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Bill for several years in Beaumont. He was a pleasure to be around and always had nothing but nice things to say. He will truley be missed, but he is in a special place. My prayers are with your family.

To Mary Monk and family-- My visit to Market Basket will not be the same. I will miss him . He was always the gentleman . He was a concerned person and could always give me the weather report. He was part of my shopping. I will miss him greatly., My sympathies to you and your family. God Bless. Shirley Benson

Bill was a very good person and friend, May His Soul Rest in Peace

Bill, you touched so many lives with your great smile and laughter. I enjoyed working with you for about 13 years. I could always look to you to brighten my day. I pray for your family to know God's peace and love at this time. You will be able to spend all your time in your moms arms, I know you are both smiling now. You will be missed.

I worked with Bill at Albertsons, you just always expected to see Bill on the front end. He spoke to everyone, and loved to talk. A group of women were singing in the store and they stopped to sing a song to Bill, He took his cap off and placed it over his heart, those that saw it, loved it. He would see me, shake my hand, tell me I better go to work. A wonderful person, he will be missed.We love you Bill
