Very sorry to hear of William's passing. I did not know him, but based on the stories I have heard he was a towering figure. Sue and I are thinking of you guys and send our condolences to the whole Goike family.

I came to love and admire Bill's endearing and gentle spirit, his positive attitude, his wholesome values, and his suttle wit over the course of 25 years of being his dental hygienist. He never missed an appointment! Bill, you will be missed!
My love and prayers go out to you, Gina, and your entire family,
Kathi Piech

So very saddened to hear of Uncle Bills passing. I have many fond memories of Uncle Bill growing up. He and my Dad Michael were very close in age and I am sure they covered for each other escapades growing up
On the farm on 10 mile red.
R.I.P. Uncle Bill!

A great man has left us! We have not lost him, however, we know right where he is! Such a Godly man who never met a stranger. We will surely miss his visits to the office and seeing him supervising at the vegetable stand. We love your family and pray that God's peace surround you all at this difficult time.
