Our deepest sympathy in the loss of your husband/dad,

We all enjoyed the times spent on the golf course with Bill as the ranger. He always had a story to tell and never went by without saying hi to all of us. We will miss him.



Sincerely,



Tom & Dorothy Boeser

Dear Markie and family:



My mother (Sharon Peterson) just emailed me with the news of Bill. I am so sorry to hear this. I have so many great memories of Bill during my childhood as well as my early adult years. Thank God I am now an older adult and can appreicate his humor, for I was always afraid of him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I'm sure you can understand where I'm coming from!)When my father died he was there to humor me, comfort me and remind me of good times...This is the Bill that will always be with me. How blest I am with his memories.



With deepest condolences,



Stacey Peterson-Connell

Dear Markie, Matt, Gina and families:

Becoming good friends with Gina when we were both the young age of 14, and usually getting into some kind of trouble together, Bill was somewhat intimidating to me in those early years. But, as time went on and we grew up, I was fortunate enough to get to know the real Bill - not just as my friends very large father! He was an incredibly generous man who always took time to chat and always included a joke and/or some kind of wise-crack.

I hope that during this difficult time, you all remember how much laughter and many smiles have filled the world because of him and what a difference he made in so many lives.

Dearest Markie, Matt, Gina and your families. I need to remind myself how happy Bill is right now but oh how I'll miss his humor. Outspoken? Maybe - Outrageous? For Sure!! and always with tongue in cheek. What wonderful memories we all have. My love to you all and will pray for your strength. Sharon
