My sincere condolences to the Family of DR. Wanamaker. We first met the Doctor when my daughter, Karen suffered a cardiac arrest in 1979 after a car accident. Karen was 17 at the time and DR. Wanamaker saved her life. He didn't give up. He gave us hope. He was truly an incredible person and treated us like we were the only ones who mattered. Our thoughts and prayers are with your Family at this sad time. Shirley & Karen Doepker Seymour Wi.

We were so saddened to hear of Bill's passing. It was my true honor to work as his nurse for many years. I was indeed fortunate to watch his dedicated service to his patients and his employees. I have always respected and admired him as a physician and as a good friend. Our thoughts are with Jane, Tom, Anne and John and their family members.

Our heartfelt sympathy to your family. I worked in neurology since 1978 and always had the utmost respect for Dr Wanamaker's honesty and knowledge of medicine along with so many other subjects.
* Just finished reading "The Boys in the Boat" and am surprised to hear Dr Wanamaker was a rowing Husky.
* I always admire him for working at the free clinic after his retirement.
*smelled a cigar the other day and thought of him.
* so many fond memories
Sincerely,
Michelle...

Always enjoyed Bill's expertise and help during my practice years (1982-2006) and also at the Free Clinic, as well as discussing the numerous fishing stories, as we were both fly-fishers. Bill's death is a great loss, and we may never see his like again. Our deepest sympathy.
