Having a husband and two sons who all worked for Menasha and Weyerhauser, where Mr. Haresnape was such an important person in their lives. Such a loss, not only for his friends and co-workers, but his family. He will be missed. Our sincere condolences to the family. Barb Phillips & Familly

Bill was one of the nicest guys we knew. We knew him when he lived across the street from our son Dan. We would visit with him and Marvel there. Their love for each other was great. He adored her.
We miss seeing Bill out working in his yard.

While our hearts are heavy for our loss, we can rest in the comfort that he has found peace and is with his beloved again.
Uncle Bill filled the empty space in my heart after my dad passed away.
He drove all the way to Portland to walk me down the aisle when I got married. I and my daughters will always have good memories of many visits and trips to the beach for a picnic with him & Aunt Marvel.
