William Allen Dandliker left to be with the Lord on May 5, 2014 in Yuma, Arizona.
Bill was born on February 28, 1941 to Lloyd and Hazel Dandliker in Shelby, Montana.
When still an infant they moved to Bellingham, Washington, where Bill spent his formative years.
He worked for a short time for Bellingham National Bank as a messenger.
On January 29, 1966 he married the love of his life Pamela June O'dell. Their lives were blessed with four children, Michael, Gary, and twins Mark and Michelle. Soon after they moved to Mount Vernon, Washington where Bill worked for the Telephone Company for 25 years. After retiring Bill and Pam purchased a motor home and traveled to many of the places they wished to see.
Bill's passion for hunting and fishing gave him many happy memories. They finally settled in Winterhaven, California.
Bill is survived by his wife of forty-eight years, Pam, his sons Mark, Mike, and Gary and wife Sarah, daughter Michelle and husband Terry Scott; his sister Sandra (Thomas) Bell, four grandchildren, Cody, Maura, Jeffery, and Alex, and one great-grandchild Landyn.

We were lucky enough to have met Pam & Bill in 1967 when we moved to Bellingham. Lyle and Bill loved sharing their stories of earlier days of fishing. I know I will catch that salmon this fall when I go to Ft. Casey, because Bill will be there too. You're laugh will be with us forever. We love you Pam.

Bill was a wonderful person and member of the Contel family. He always had a smile and never complained about anything. He performed his cable locating job with thoroughness and exactness. He will be missed.

Sorry for your loss Pam and family. I worked with him at the phone company. What a great guy. I would locate for him which I really didn't like and he would always say "it's just like strawberries and ice cream".
