William Henry Rider

Wow. Just...wow. Beautiful.
Has me pondering; what can we do to celebrate a life this before it ends?

My deepest sympathies. That u for helping our son learn the ropes of disability law and helping me with my case that he won in court . Very sad love to all his family and friends

Lorene -
Remembering Bill as you describe him in the
obituary. Thinking of you and your family and
remembering wonderful times past - - working for the Shaker schools and good causes in Shaker. My condolences --

So sorry to hear of Bill's passing. He was an easy person to work with and I'll remember him fondly. Hoping your family finds peace in the coming days.

I'm am so saddened by this news. I am a court reporter and took many depositions with Bill.
He was always, always a pleasure to work with.
I remember him telling me many moons ago how his daughter could name every bird species. He was, oh, so proud. It was a beautiful conversation, one I'm happy to remember. Peace in your hearts.

I worked with Bill at Allstate. He was wonderful to work with and I thought of him often. Lorene and family : May you find comfort in wonderful memories.

Judith and I will always remember Bill introducing us to PORT WINE WITH STILTON CHEESE!!! Even better was his conversation with sharing.
Please accept our sincere condolences.

Bill was one of the great ones. Kind, funny, compassionate and generous. Always delivering a great line while sporting a smile. He will be remembered fondly.

Please accept sympathy from a lawyer - who enjoyed every interaction with Bill over many years. More than once he nearly clipped me when squeezing his bulge-mobile through the 55 Public Square garage. With that Smile. God Bless Bill, a Good Man, and Bill's Family Whom He Loved.

He Who, a sweet and gentle man, a loving husband and father! RIP Bill.
Lorene, my love to you and your family. I´m so glad that you have such beautiful memories of your yesterdays to cherish and carry into your tomorrows!
I hold you and your family in my prayers and in my heart.

Lorene and family, so very sorry for your loss! Although, I did not know Bill well, I have such fond memories of how your eyes would light up every time you spoke of your sweet husband! Love and prayers for the Rider family!

I met Bill on some cases he was handling. He was a fine lawyer but an even better person. So sorry for your loss.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

RIP Bill. Safe home.

I´m speechless right now to hear this news.

I am a court reporter, and I spent many days with Bill traveling all over the State of Ohio during the height of the asbestos litigation.

We spoke about our families often, and I feel like I know all of you personally. My dad was sick at the time of our traveling, and Bill would ask me every day about how my father was doing.

He was such a kind soul. We had many laughs together over the years.

We traveled many times with other attorneys to depositions in a light blue Buick, I think, and often times we would have car trouble on the way. But Bill loved that car!

Please know I am thinking about your family. The Cleveland legal community will not be the same without Bill.
