Bill Sanders Obituary


SANDERS,
Bill G.

Bill G. Sanders was born in Alfalfa, Oregon on March 11, 1935 and entered into rest on March 12, 2011 at 76 years of age. He was a heart transplant recipient and was able to enjoy for many years his family, his animals and his faithful dog Alice. He took great pleasure in music and singing and played various instruments including fiddle and banjo. Bill was an accomplished sculptor. His bronze and metal figures are enjoyed throughout the Northwest including the "Moose and Wolves" art work currently on display at the Spokane Int. Airport. Bill is survived by his brother Alton "Lee" Sanders and sister Opal "Sammie" Judd and numerous nieces and nephews. There will be a celebration of his life at a later date. We love you Bill and already miss you. Your loving family.
