William GOSSET

GOSSET, William: The one-and-only Big Bill Gosset, 73, passed away suddenly in the wee hours of September 3, 2021. Born William George Ralph, but known only as Bill, he was world-renowned for his substantial stature, his signature grin and his knack for telling a damned good story. He enjoyed a long and successful career as a respected real estate appraiser and loved hunting, traveling, music and his four grandkids. He was predeceased by his brother Dennis and parents Allen and Cleone Gosset and is survived by his daughter Tara (Paul); son Dan (Mirandy); his grandchildren Owen, Reid, Jaxon and Ashlyn; his sisters Gail and Laura (Don); and brother Wally (Jo). Due to COVID, a private service will be held graveside. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
