Tom, Cindy, Tim and Jim... so sorry for the passing of your Dad. Uncle Bill was such a hard working, sweet and humble man, much like a second dad growing up. He is a treasure for sure! Rest in peace Uncle Bill! Love you!

Our sincere sympathy to Bill's beloved Joan and the entire Maier family at this difficult time.
Bill's conversations were always fun no matter where we'd meet him. His proud family farming legacy will live forever. Farmers throughout Monroe County have always admired Bill and the Maier Farms name and the generations of Maiers that keep it going.
While attending old tractor shows around the country with Bill's brother Dick (and Helen) always stories of Bill would come up making everyone feel good. Rest easy dear friend. May the Lord provide his comfort and blessings to you for eternity.
