Bill was a veteran of the U.S. Army. He retired from Consolidated Freightways. He will be remembered for his love and devotion to his wife and family. He had a love for the outdoors. He enjoyed fishing on Lake Erie as Captain of Plan B fishing boat, and other lakes as well. He looked forward to the annual deer hunting trips to Dresden with his sons, family and friends. His deepest passion was listening to Bluegrass music.
Our family wishes to thank the doctors and nurses at the Cleveland Clinic McDowell Cancer Centers in Green and Akron, and the Justin T. Rogers Hospice Care Center in Fairlawn for their kindness, compassion and support.
Cremation has taken place. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there will be no service at this time. A celebration of life will be planned in the future.
