William Maixner

A very special man. He did great things but most importantly loved his family with all his heart. I hope they are doing well.

Bill was such an inspiration to me. I worked for him in the 1990s and he encouraged me to go to grad school. While in grad school he was on my thesis committee. He was an amazing person, an amazing teacher and just a great guy. I am so sorry to learn of his passing. I send many thoughts and prayers to his wonderful family.

I am very proud to say that I was a High School friend , college friend college roommate for two years and Bill was the best man in my wedding in 1977. What I remember most was his ever present smile and positive attitude. Bill was as fun loving as any of us but what made him stand out was his kindness and caring toward people. He was a steady and guiding force among his friends . And such a modest guy, he will be greatly missed by all and God bless Tdim and family.

I was a classmate at both OHS and at University of Iowa. So sorry to hear Bill's passing. I have many wonderful memories of our undergrad days at U of I. Bill was a great roommate and very caring person. He accomplished so much. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

So very sad to hear of Bill's passing. He was one of the nicest, kindest, most caring individuals I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. If not for Bill's tutoring, I'd still be at U of I trying to pass chemistry. Rest in peace, dear Fish. You'll be missed by the many lives you touched.

Bill and I go back to his days in Iowa. His early ideas were so interesting they influenced me to change my own line of research to pursue his. Bill would take classes during the day for both his Phd and DDS and carry out research for those programs. At night, he would show up around 7 in my laboratory and we would work on his own novel interests on cardiovascular - pain regulatory system interactions. Around 11 pm, we would stop and go out for a beer and play a few games of pinball. Then he...

A good, good friend from a long time back. R.I.P. Fish
