William H. Cleaver

I just came across this obituary and I wanted to give my memory of Dr Cleaver. I was fresh out of dental assistant school and he gave me my first job. He was a great boss and teacher. I will always remember him fondly and I have great memories from working at his office. My kindest regards to all.

Fond memories of Bill at Emerson Grade school in Hoquiam, Wa. May our Lord Bless him. - Albert C. Perry

Bill was a great guy, an athlete, scholar and a gentleman. He was a year ahead of me at Hoquiam High School, and also graduated from the U of Wash Dental School a year ahead of me. My parents were good friends with Bill's parents, Helen and George. I spent many evenings at the Cleavers trying to learn how to tie fishing flies from Bill and George, both experts. However, I was better at eating trout than cathing them! Unfortunately, I lost track of Bill after college when I moved east to...

Fond memories of Bill. I was a classmate of Bill's starting at Emerson Grade school and through High School in Hoquiam, Washington. We send our best wishes to Bill's family........

I also graduated from Hoquiam High School. Bill was ahead of me in school. However, even being a year ahead, he was known by all as being a polite, smart, and great guy. He was so respected even back then. My sympathies to the family for such a loss. Adrean Pelczar Harris

Dear Dr. Cleaver's family,
I was so sad to hear the news of Dr. Cleaver's passing. He was my dentist for 30 years, from the time I was six years old. He also was so loved by my Mother Georgie. She met him at the start of his career and spoke so fondly of him often. Dr. Cleaver was the kindest most caring person, I was never scared in the dentist chair, he always made me feel special.
God Bless Dr. Cleaver,
Monica

My sisters and I enjoyed visiting with Mari-Ann and Uncle Bill when they would visit my Dad's retirement home and Mari-Ann would play the piano for the residents. Uncle Bill was our mom's brother and his presence was a comfort for us because he reminded us so much of her. We will miss him very much!

Dr. Cleaver took very good care of me for 30 years, and was the best dentist, EVER! Your loss is great, dear Mari-Ann, and I support you with my thoughts and prayers. I think of each of you, fondly, as I look at my garden angel. Take good care, Hannah
