Bill Bean

Still very upset with myself for not staying in touch with Beaner through out the years - He was a magnificent man and family man! Help me change my first diaper! I know his awesome family misses him- I do - I´m a better man for knowing him - peace Bill

Like Jeff Braman, I knew Bill at USU. We were SAE brothers and good friends. I claim 3 options of knowing Bill; friend, school and other. I can add nothing to Bill's success in life, except, perhaps, the fact that he was a product of wonderful, loving parents right out of the starting gate. I was attending college in Logan from Hawaii and spent several Thanksgiving and Xmas breaks in Rexburg. They are still some of my fondest holiday memories. What a friendly and giving family. Rest easy my...

I had a knee injury that I thought was the end of my football career. I was concerned that I would lose my scholarship and be sent home. It was Bill Bean who told me exactly what to do after my surgery to be able to play the game I loved since 7 years old. I was able to get back on the field and fulfill my lifelong dream of playing pro. Thanks Bill Bean, gone but never forgotten.

When I suffered the neck and shoulder injury that ended my career, Bill was there for me - physically, mentally, emotionally, personally and professionally. I was so down he probably saved my life! Bill was the very best Athletic Trainer in the country - respected and admired and honored by all of us who knew him! Every college team I worked with around the country had a Trainer who knew the legendary expertise and gentle genius of Bill Bean. Thanks for taking care of me! RIP my friend!

We will miss you Billy. Thank you for the memories. Condolences to Nancy and the boys. Go Utes! The Pimms

Bill was such a wonderful and knowledgeable person, especially when it came to caring for my feet. I´m still wearing the orthotics that he made me many years ago. He was a very great man.

Bill and I were fraternity brothers at USU. He was a year my senior and called me "Jeffer". He was very kind to me at an age when many young men were "flexing their muscles". We laughed a lot over silly things. I have not spoken to Bill since college days but when I learned of his death I cried. I am crying now.

Condolences to Nancy and entire family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Justin and the Bean Family for the loss of Bill an incredible human! Love ya Justin!#originalfriend Madison, Tracy, Bill & Caylee
