Sorry to read about Bill's passing in the Oregon Stater. He and I were room mates our junior year at OSU, living off campus in an apartment. We called him "Moose" and during football season he'd have bruises on his nose from the contact. I remember him fondly as being good humored, gentle and an all around nice guy. RIP

We send our condolences to the Plumeau Family. May the grief you feel be softened as you celebrate the Joys of life shared with Bill.

I was unable to attend the gathering, but wanted you to know what a great man Bill was. I worked with Bill at Gresham High School from 1993 until his retirement. As a new teacher in the Business Department I always knew he had my back. Bill Plumeau was truly one of the "great guys". I am so sorry for your loss.

Bill and I and a small team of teachers worked closely together in the 1980s at Gresham High School, enjoying some good laughs along the way, especially our joke about flying buttresses. (You had to have been there.) Anyway, he was a great guy and I will remember him fondly. Oh, yes, he sure looked sharp in his referee uniform.

My times planning and teaching Econ with Bill and Kevin Hart, as well as our summers working on "Best Way" projects will always be cherished. He was a wonderful colleague and friend. Blessings to the family.

I had the distinct pleasure of knowing and volunteering with Bill at Fairway Village. He always had a positive attitude and was a friend to all. He will be missed.

Upon first meeting Bill and Carol I knew I had to get to know them better. We definitely enjoyed our time with both while in Indio. Wish we had more time together. He will be missed.
