Read MoreI first met Bill when I was bank teller in 2000, he always had a big smile and made us all laugh every time he came in to the bank. What a genuine and great human being. Condolences to Loretta and family on your loss.

Whatever he did he was passionate about it. Enjoyed many fine elk hunting trips with Bill.
I remember he had to get a crown made for his tooth and had the marine corps emblem engraved on the crown before putting it on his tooth. He always said, "Once a marine, always a marine".
RIP and Semper Fi.

His smile, laughter and warmth. His love of family and joy of friends. An always present twinkle in his eye and a soul with an appreciation of just the right amount of mischief; and fun, always fun. He was a gift to everyone. My deepest condolences to his family and empathy for the many friends who are feeling the sorrow of his passing. His passing will bring tears but the memories will continue bring smiles, always smiles.
Love, Suzanne
