We’ve known Billy & Stevie since childhood summers in Budd Lake, NJ. During our adulthood, Billy has always been the most loving husband, adoring father and generous friend we have ever had the good fortune to know.
Billy, you may be gone but you have left your light in our hearts and we’re better people because you were in our world.
Love, Christine & Steve
Stud..I was blessed to have you as a part of my life. You touched many people in such a precious way and all those good times and untouchable memories will never be forgotten. I know you look out for you family everyday, but just to let you know you have some wonderful friends and family that will always be here for them as well. We all love you and miss you very much…you are and always be STUD to me.

I will try and make this very brief. The Hermans and the Esposito’s go way back from living down the block to summers at Pontiac. Billy and the Espo family have been a huge part of my life for so many years. I will never ever forget Billy and the wonderful person he was. Whenever I saw him whether it was a family function or visiting day at camp Billy always had a smile on his face and was always happy. The last time I saw Billy before Sept 11th was Sat Sept 9th at a wedding and I sat next to him during the ceremony and I told him how spiffy he looked. He was very proud to tell me that Susan dressed him. I will never forget that night and seeing him so happy and content. Billy, I will miss you and I think about you every day. Stevie, Craig and Susan – my heart truly goes out to you and I love you guys so much. Billy will forever be in my heart.
Love,
Laurie
There are so many wonderful things that can be said about Billy. Most importantly, he was one of the most loving fathers and husbands I have ever known. One of the last times I saw Billy was at Susie’s graduation party and I don’t think I have ever seen a father as proud of his daughter as I saw on that day. Billy was an amazing person that I, along with so many others, will miss forever.
Dear Daddy,
your kisses, hugs, touch, smell, smile, our talks, laying in bed together, watching a movie and your face is what I miss. You have given me a life that many people only dream about. How many can say that there is there hero, best friend and world, not many. You have always been there for me from dance recitals, school event’s, social event’s, every mile stone, every good time and bad cheering me on. With you in my corner I felt there was nothing I couldn’t do. When we were together or apart I always felt safe, secure like nothing could ever happen to me and if it did you would always be there to help me. Now I feel lost, alone, scared, I don’t know who I am or what my life is about anymore. The bond we share no one can ever touch or break. What you tought me only your love could teach me. There will never ever be a person in my life that could love me the way you do or measure up to you. We had the perfect life, the four of us together and in a moments time our perfect world crumbled. With your hard work and determination you gave us a life beyond our wildst dreams, vacations, the finest resturants, the best seats at concerts, sporting event’s and play’s, our shopping event’s but most of all love, support and memories that will last a life time. (continue)
(continued from last submission) Not a day went by that you didn’t tell me you loved me, how proud you are of me, a kiss good night and a kiss in the morning while I was still sleeping and you were off to work. We laughed, fought(knowing now that I am older that it was only because you love me and wanted to protect me), we shed many tears together. You gave me the nickname Lippa Louie shortened to just Louie I swear I hear you calling it. I loved when you would tell me about growing up in Brooklyn, nan and pop and how different it was. Don’t worry I am helping mommy because you always say “How great she is and do this or that before she gets home so she doesn’t get mad”. You tought us about family, being kind to one another, love and life. I will do my best to take care of Mommy and Craig although no one can do it the way you do. You are the most wounderful, loving, caring, generous, admirable person I know. You are the best Daddy in the world. I will always be your little girl. I love you so much and miss you like crazy. I have a hole in my heart that only you and your love can fill. Daddy I love you always and forever we will always be togethre we will always be one.
TO OUR SPECIAL FRIENDS,
WE MISS THE MAN WHO ALWAYS RAN PAST OUR HOME, WHO ALWAYS SAW WAYNE WASH HIS TRUCK RAIN OR SHINE, WHO WOULD VISIT WHEN WE DECORATED OUR HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS, OR WHEN WE PASSED HIM WOULD SAY TO WAYNE OOPS YOUR TRUCK IS DIRTY TIME TO WASH! WE THANK YOU BILLY FOR THE WONDERFUL FAMILY WE HAVE AS OUR FRIENDS TO LOVE. AS NICOLETTE WILL SAY “I NEED TO GO TO STEVIES HOUSE”. SORRY GUYS YOUR STUCK WITH US LIKE A BAD PENNY. WE LOVE YOU, WAYNE, JENNIFER, ANTHONY, DYLAN AND NICOLETTE
I met Billy 25 years ago, when I was only 5 years old. My parents are best friends with The Espos and all of us have shared many amazing times together. My fondest memories are of the times we spent at the beach, when we just got to sit and talk. Billy rarely spoke about himself; he was always concerned about my life and what was going on. He was such a selfless person. Every Christmas Eve, The Espos host a huge party. You can tell how overjoyed Billy always was, being surrounded by friends and family, celebrating. On 9/11, I lost a great friend and the world lost an amazing person. Billy will always live in my heart and I will never forget all the wonderful times we shared.
Love,
Gail
We have been best friends with Susan and Craig since we were little kids and Billy has been a part of our lives since then. From Camp Pontiac, to Wisconsin football, we have enjoyed many moments with Billy and will always miss him. What we will remember most was that he was coolest dad going. He was always laughing and being the life of the party. Most of all though, he was the greatest father to Susan and Craig, and anyone could easily see how proud he was of them and how much he loved them. He was definately not shy about that. The Esposito’s are one of the closest families we have ever seen, an we are greatful for the example that they set for us all. Billy Esposito was a fun loving family man to Stevie, Susan, and Craig, and we will always remember him for that. Most of all, we love the Esposito’s so much and are thankful to Billy for helping make them so special. He will be truly missed by everyone who’s life he ever touched.
Willie-
Even though you were technically my parents’ friend, you and I always knew differently. We were buddies from day one. Your smile, laughter, hugs and kisses will always be missed. The stories, the jokes, the holiday parties, Turkey Bowls (now the Billy Bowl) are memories that will last forever. You did exceptionally well throughout your life by exceeding your wildest dreams in buisness and realization of the perfect family life. You would be so proud of Stevie, Craig and Suzie how they are carrying on in your absence, as they learned a lot of lessons from you. You are missed terribly, but certainly not forgotten by anyone. I hope you’re enjoying your Perfect Manhattans in heaven, cause Manhattan will NEVER be perfect again without you. Love ya, D
Billy-
Not a day goes by when I don’t think of you. And it is no different for all your friends and family. We all miss and love you. You’re gone, and you’re still very much with us.
Thinking of you now and always,
Adam Schefter
Dear Bunny,
Hi hon, I’m sitting on the couch in your spot remembering the many times walking through the door and you would be watching T.V., reading or dozing with your foot rocking. I’d say “are you sleeping?” and you would say “no”, but I knew you were. I wish you were laying here right now with your head on my lap. At times I still can’t believe you’re not here with me.
I will always treasure the life we shared, from 10-40 years old, from Budd Lake, as kids, Sheepshead Bay, as newlyweds, to Bellmore where you gave me the best gift of all, Craig and Susan.
I’m looking at the memorial pictures and thinking of all the wondeful memories we made. Family vacations were always fun, it didn’t matter where we were as long as we were together. The vacations we took, just you and I enjoying each othere and having fun, I’ll treasure forever. You may have been ripped out of my life, along with a part of my heart that will never again be whole, but nothing could destroy what we had. The bond and love was unbreakable.
I want to thank you for being my best friend, lover and the best husband anyone can ask for. You gave me unconditional love and support that not many people share. Our life wasn’t always easy, but together we could get through anything. Don’t worry about Craig, Susan, Lady and me, we’ll get through this, it will just be a lot harder without you by my side.
I miss you saying “doesn’t my Bunny look pretty”, your giggle, your smell and most of all your arms around me. We had such a wonderful life and shared many dreams, some became a reality and the rest I’ll try to make come true for us. You might not be by my side but you’ll live on in my heart and soul forever and ever. I will miss you more than words can say and I’ll love you forever. I do believe that one day we’ll be together, but until then you’ll be with me always.
Love,
Your Bunny
Billy,
You were a net seller in the market, but a net buyer in life. Although you were always pessimistic about stocks, you were so optimistic
when it came to your framily and friends. Your priorities were crystal clear. First came your family then your friends and lastly your perfect manhattans. We knew it was mandatory to have a perfect manhattan straight up with a twist (you hated cherries) chilled and ready if you were coming over.
Being your friend for twenty years, through the good times and the not so good times, enriched our lives. Your love, compassion, integrity and generosity will be sorely missed. You instilled all of these qualities in Susan and Graig which will remain with them forever. That is the ultimate legacy one can leave.
We love you and miss you
glo & bobbyd
The old Adage: “You never miss someone or somthing till it is taken away”. Fits so perfect with Billy. In fact not having “his presence” at times hurts inside. Not having his many “SOMETHINGS” wich he brought though his humor & strength. Always there if needed with family & friends. Damn do i miss him! My only salace is that I will always have the memories & times we spent together—-This is something that can never be taken from me. You will always be in my heart and not a day will go by that I don’t think of you.
You will never be forgotten
love rocky
I met Craig at the University of Wisconsin in 1994. Not too long after that, I met Billy and Stevie. Billy is the most selfless, loving and caring person who shared his passion for life with everybody he came across. How many dads worked as hard as Billy did but were able to spend as much quality time with their kids? From family trips to Europe, multiple visits to Madison, WI (with tins of ziti and meatballs) it was hard to keep up with the Espositos. The things I will always remember about Billy are his generosity and love. He treated everybody like they were part of his family. He worked the hardest, had the most fun, complained the most about Wisconsin football but most of all he loved his family and the life he lived. You will truly be missed but not forgotten. Thanks for your generosity and for being a friend.
Love always.
When I think of Billy he is standing over the barbeque in the backyard in Bellmore, spatula in hand feeding thirty of us sausage and burgers. He’s offering the doc 20 bucks to “just go away”. He’s in Stillwaters in Wisconsin closing the bar down with all the guys, Manhattan in hand, the coolest cat you ever saw. People just loved Billy and wanted to be around him. He was funny, he was cool, he told it like it was and he was always there for all his friends, and there are ALOT of us. Billy made us all feel like family, everyone was at home at the Esposito’s house and that spirit of closeness will last forever…Billy, you are sorely missed and remembered with an unparalelled fondness and always a smile. Thank you for being a part of my life, for teaching me about family, and for giving me a friend like Craig.
DEAR BILLY,
OUR LIVES HAVE BEEN IRREVOCABLY CHANGED BY SEPTEMBER 11TH. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF MEMORIES. IT SEEMS LIKE ONLY YESTERDAY WE MET.
WE SHARED SO MANY THINGS — HAPPY AND SAD. YOU WERE PART OF OUR LIVES EVERY WEEK. SO MANY LAUGHS..SO MANY TEARS. FAMILY OUTINGS, CAMP VISITING, BIRTHDAYS, ANNIVERSARIES, BAR AND BAT MITZVAHS, GRADUATIONS, PROMS, WEDDINGS AND BIRTHS. YOU MARVELING AT OUR CHILDRENS’ ACCOMPLISHMENTS. FINDING THEIR STRENGTHS AND PRAISING THEM. YOU HOLD THE WORLD CHAMPION OLYMPIC GOLD “YENTA” MEDAL.
I CLOSE MY EYES AND VISUALIZE YOU ON THE DANCE FLOOR IN YOUR TUXEDO DOING THE BILLY STRUT WITH ME. YOU WILL BE FOREVER IN MY HEART.
TILL WE MEET AGAIN — LOVE, TERRY
Bill,
I’m so blessed to have had you for my son in law. We didn’t always see eye to eye but our relationship grew as years went by.
I know you since you were 10 years old and watched you grow from a child to a man that anyone would be proud to have known. You were the best husband, father, and son in law in the whole world and anyone who knew you had their lives enriched.
Your kindness to me when I stayed in your home when I was ill was above and beyond anything one could have wished for. I miss you and love you now and will always miss and love you for always.
Love shirley.
Dearest Billy,
This Valentine’s Day, you are in our hearts. We think of you every day and will always remember our vacations to Italy, Martha’s Vineyard and Puerto Rico, parties, the beach, countless dinners, and just “hanging out”. We miss you more than words can say and cherish ALL of the memories we made together.
Love,
Jackie and Bob
PS- We’re sure in heaven, they make Perfect Manhattens with Rye and a twist (no cherries), just the way you like it!!!
Billy,
We go all the way back to Budd Lake, Nan & Gramps,Shirley & Seymour, a visit to meet your mother & father, Simco Shoes, Terrace On The Park, the purchase of your Bellmore home, the birth of Craig & Susan and the fact that you were my brother-in-law for almost 17 years. You were the uncle of my children(who in your eyes could never do wrong). You were always there for them and so proud to be called “uncle”. I remember how excited you and Stevie were about the house on the water. You always thought positive and would figure out a way to afford it. You succeeded at that and everything else that came your way. It was so nice getting reacquainted in the past few years and I know it felt as good for you too. We enjoyed our last visit with you at the beach. It was just like the “old days”. I think of you quite often and wonder why “Bad Things Happen To Good People”? You certainly were one of those good people.
Billy,
From Budd Lake to Bellmore. He was a mere child when I met him. Billy had an incredible lust for life, and was a wonderful father, husband, and brother-in-law, but to me he was more like a brother. It was great watching Billy grow up to the mature, successful, “People Loving” human being he became. He was kind, sensitive, and always helped those that needed it with much emotion. You will be greatly missed, but never forgotten. I hope you feel my love, I will see you when it’s time for us to be together again.
Love Always,
Mart
Billy-
Trying to describe how I feel right now is difficult. My eyes fill with tears yet I cannot think of you without smiling. I have thoughts of you dancing like a madman at Susie’s graduation party. You were always so fun to be around. You offered your advise whenever it was needed. You have represented the ideal father, husband, son , brother, my best friends “daddy”, and friend. You’re family is lucky in that you have supplied them with enough love and strength to get them through this disaster. Billy, thank you for all that you have given to this world. It will never be the same without you. You will be missed more than you can ever know. All my love.
-Welcome- As I think of ways to remember and describe you, the word welcome comes to mind. You always made everyone feel welcome. Whether it was holidays, parties or just a mormal family dinner you always opened your home and family to me, as if I was a part of it. I remember you treating me as a peer and not just another one of your son’s friends. Some of my best memories come from times spent with you and your family.
I thank you for offering me a chance to be accepted unconditionally amongst your family. I appreciate and cherish the time I was lucky enough to know you. Billy, you were a true success in life. If I can become even half the husband, father, friend and man you were I will consider myself lucky. Thank you for letting me know you.
With much admiration, respect and love:
Gutty
Dear Uncle Billy,
How the years go by so quickly, I can not believe that almost 30 years ago I was the flower girl at your wedding. Who ever thought that I would not have the honor to have you at mine. I think about you often and what a wonderful uncle, as well as father and husband you were. You represented the true word of “Love and Devotion” in your everyday life with your family and friends. I keep the childhood memories of you close to my heart and replay them at times as they make me laugh. Like when you used to take Craig and Susie for their Sunday “7-Eleven Run”, that I think became a ritual. I remember the day you brought my new cousin (Susie) home from the hospital and to our house in Bellmore. I remember at Nan’s 80th birthday watching you smiling and laughing and having a good ole time as you did when family and friends got together. I think about how much fun we had at my Dad’s 50th surprise party as we danced the night away and you stomped those feet and shook that head as you so often did. You always seemed to have a glow. I guess you take those things for granted at times as we all do until something precious is not in our lives. I hope you are dancing and resting where you are now. You worked so hard throughout life to always be the best and give the best you could to your family. I am proud to call you my “Uncle Willie”.
Love Always,
Wendy Pelcyger (Niece)
Though I did not know Billy, I have started to talk to Susie a lot lately. Susie and I have connected on some level because I lost my father in the summertime and then lost my 23 year-old cousin, Brooke Jackman, on Sept. 11th. Susie actually grew up with Brooke and they spent summers together at Camp Pontiac. I remembered meeting Susie when I was a little girl and hearing stories about her from my cousin. When I heard about what happened to her father, I had to contact her. Susie, I want you to know that I know you are going through a horrible time and that you have tons of family and friends to help you through this. I want you to know that you can count on me as well. I look forward to the day that we can finally meet up and compare “dad” stories or talk about Brooke as well. The situation that we have is a horrible one to have to “bond over”, but I know we at least find some comfort in talking to one another. Talking to you and listening to the way you talk about your father and the rest of your family makes me realize what a special, caring, warm group of people you all are. I am so sorry that you are having to go through all of this. Always hold your memories close in your heart. Your father will always be with you and will never be forgotten.
Thinking of you always,
Gillian
Dearest Stevie, Susan and Craig,
It was so incredibly moving to read all of the tributes on Billy’s site, just confirmation of how special he was and how many lives he touched. How awesome to have had him in all of our lives, just for too short a time. Having you both at our last Christmas party meant the world to us, just one of many wonderful memories like our laughter filled dinners at the Water Club and countless other restaurants. Our vacation with the damn rooster in our under-construction condo in St. Martin could never be topped! I met scoop in 1976 when we were both rookies in Wall St. I became Billy`s broker when he was a trader at E.F. Hutton. For the next 25 years Billy and I built a friendship based on trust, respect and many, many laughs. Since I was Billy`s broker we were on the phone together eight hours a day, five days a week. I will always hear Billy`s voice in my heart and I will always cherish our friendship. Billy had a major impact not only on my life but on my son’s and wife’s as well. I have so many memories of Billy …Montauk, Bermuda, St.Martin, baseball games, fancy resturants, B’way plays, family functions, party’s and so much more. I will miss Bill the rest of my life but each day will bring a smile to my face with the fond memories spent with Billy, Stevie, Craig, and Susan. God bless you my friend, my thoughts and prayers will be with you always. Your pal, Bobby..(Uncle Braindead)

Your pal, Bobby (Uncle Braindead)
(PS:With much love to you all from Margaret)
Billy,
For as far back as I can remember, you have been a part of my life. I have the greatest memories of the times I spent sleeping at your house, going
fishing on your boat, the beach club, you taking us to Carvel after the little league all-star game (where Craig and I pitched against each
other)…and of course the countless Christmas parties. When I think of all those times I picture you with a big smile on your face, enjoying life, your family and friends as much as a man was able to. I’ll cherish those memories forever, and feel very lucky that you were a part of my life. Your presence will always be missed and never forgotten.
Love Always,
Jason “Ace” Hornig
The expression “Out of sight, Out of mind” could never hold true for anyone who knew Billy Esposito. There’s not a day that goes by, without a thought, or vision of the smile, generosity, love, or care he gave. Not to mention the “Willie Walk” that so many tried imitating, but were unable to conquer. Whenever a song is heard with that 1-2-3-4 beat, I picture us dancing with that smirk across his lips, the sweat pouring down his face, but there till the end…as he will stay in my heart.
Love Forever,
WE ALL LOVED BILLY VERY MUCH. I HAVE KNOWN YOU GUYS, I THINK, FOREVER. WE ALL SAW GOODS THINGS IN OUR LIVES FROM START TO FINISH. I WILL MISS BILL BUT HE WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN IN MY HEART.
LOVE YOU ALL
JOEL GROSSMAN (UNCLE JOEL)
Billy was born in Brooklyn, NY to parents Susan and Michael Esposito and older brother Michael. He attended John Jay High School graduating in 1968. While in high school he worked part time at Walston & Co. in the P & S department and at Simco Shoes downtown Brooklyn where Stevie’s dad Seymour was his boss.
Budd Lake, NJ was where Billy and Stevie met and spent summers together since they were 10. Billy’s parents and Stevie’s grandparents owned summer homes. They were together through thick and thin since they were 15 and were married on September 16, 1972 at Terrace On The Park. They lived in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn and in 1975 they bought a home in Bellmore, Long Island where Stevie, Craig, Susan and Lady still live.
On December 10, 1975, their son Craig was born and on February 9, 1978, their daughter Susan was born. Billy’s relationship with both his children was one that most people dreamt about. They shared a mutual love, admiration and respect. Their bond was unbreakable. He was their best friend and confidant there was nothing he wouldn’t do for them and they knew it.
Billy was hard working, loving, generous, compassionate and a giving person. It meant nothing to Billy to go out to dinner with their friends and pick up the check. Billy, you will forever be loved and missed by many. As far as Craig, Susan, Lady and I are concerned all the love, joy and memories you gave us is a part of you that will live on forever and ever in our souls and we will miss you more than words can ever say.
We will Love you forever,
I recently came across a poem by Ralph Waldo Emerson that must have been written about Billy.
SUCCESS
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.

Leafing through the NY Times Portraits of 9/11 victims in a store yesterday, I was bound to find someone I knew. Remembered you had been a bond guy and was so very, very sad to find you. Spent my summers in Budd Lake in the house on the corner diagonally across from you and Mike. We all hung out on the Pine King beach as teenagers: you, Stevie, Chris, Steve, the Freddies, Eileen, Karl, Billy K., Penny, Dorothy, Richie, Mike – we were the gang.
You were always a good guy. Kids can be cruel. Not you. Kids pick on each other. You never did. Oh, you were quick-witted and street smart, nobody’s fool, and funny, you could make us laugh with your ways. But you were also even tempered and kind. A lover not a fighter. You loved Stevie and knew it was for life when you were barely old enough to have (and no one talked about) hormones. Maybe, you knew you would want every minute to count, that the two of you would benefit from the head start.
The last time I spoke to you, you were trying to talk me into coming out for a reunion. You knew that friendship matters. Billy Espo, wish I had done it, man.
So truly sorry, Stevie.
Peace.
Mully
Stevie,
Its been a while.. I just wanted you to know
that I think about you guys all the time..
Scoop is always in my thoughts.. as are you and the kids.. I hope you find peace this holiday season .

Billy…You are forever in our hearts. It has been said that the measure of a man is often described by the people whose lives he has touched. Billy has touched and inspired so many of us to dream higher, do better, to be caring and responsible loving individuals. A loving family and the goal of an education and giving back to others were important to Billy. We are all better people as the result of knowing you Billy. Your smile, laughter and love will warm our hearts forever. There is a missing piece that one day will be filled, in the hearts of many who love you.
I have known Stevie, Marty and their parents and Phi since childhood, living next door and growing up together as one big family…our moms like Lucy and Ethel….how lucky we are to have and continue to share our lives together. Love you guys!!!! Thank you.
