William "Bill" Gannon

Erika,
When I think of Bill....I remember the great smile and the twinkle in his eye that said..."Im going to play a trick on you." He loved you, and Ford Trucks. (I always wanted to sell him one),he appreciated angel pins, and I could always see his concern for others. He touched so many people. I will always remember his surprise 50th birthday party, and his laughter.
It has been my pleasure to have met this great guy. He will be missed by many.

Dear Erika,
There is not enough paper to describe our memories with Bill and you. They first started with skiing in CO. when we were all very young, (and the men had hair.) Bill couldn't wait til morning to leave, and would get us all going about midnight in couple of cars and our trusty CB's.Thus came MY name, "bushdog" (bill has a name for everyone), because we couldn't find anything open for a potty break. You can imagine, the guys going one way to find a bush, and the women the...

to Erica and all of the Gannon Clan,
Bill was the kind of guy you immediately liked as soon as you exchanged a few words with him. He will be missed.

This is for Bill's sister, Susan, and all the Gannon brothers... I can't say I've ever known a more sincere, gracious, loving family. Bill is going to be missed by many, but his jolly personality and orneriness will certainly be remembered for a long time to come. I will always think of him with a mischievous grin and a twinkle in his eye. The Gannon/Schultz clan has been so supportive and giving to all of us Hoffmans over the years. I feel like you all are family, and want you know we...

I need to write a great Memory of experience we ALL had with Bill. Back in the late 70's we used to celebrate the Octoberfest at the Liederkranz. We german girls and Helmut did all the singing and entertaining, but Bill was our Backbone and Leader for ALL the Oktoberfests we did with Bill and Helmut. Bill made sure that every table was involved and up on their feet, no matter what age attended.
Bill danced with all of us and always brought enough shirts to keep up with all us german...

Erika, Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I am so glad that Bill was a part of our lives, many a days did I ride with him back and forth to see Mom and Dad from the Ranch. He was the best Santa anyone could ask for. I will always remember his smile and how he could always make you laugh. Gods Blessings to you. I know he is having a good time in heaven today.

We are so sorry to hear about Bill, Erika. Our hearts go out to you. We will miss his great smile and the world lost a GREAT Santa. We've known you for some time and had some great times after the Christmas parties. We still look for him whenever we see a county truck or blade. He always told Jim to give his wife a squeeze. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Love

Hi Erika,
So sorry to hear about Bill. We've been so far away for so many years we never got a chance to spend much time together with any of the family and that is a shame as Mom has just passed away less than a year ago and now another Gannon isn't with us. We'll try and stop by next time we're home and please drop us a line if you get a chance.

Erika, My prayers are with you. I only knew Bill for a short time, but over the last couple of years i got to know a fun, loving man. I'll never forget the times I would be walking in the parking lot and I would hear someone yelling "Godzilla". I always knew he was around. Please take care of yourself and know he is in a better place looking down on us
