William Ferro Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Born on June 17, 1961, in Berwyn, IL, William was a man whose life was defined by his thoughtful nature and an unwavering commitment to his family and friends. William, affectionately known as Uncle Bill to those closest to him, was a cherished son, brother, uncle, and friend. His sister, Jeralyn Nelson, remembers him as not only a brother but a confidant and a source of unwavering support. His many nieces, nephews, and great-nieces and great-nephews knew him as the fun-loving uncle who always had time for their stories and dreams. He now will be reunited with the love of his life, Linda Rodriguez and their loyal dog Squeekers. He will forever be known as "the man with a plan".
In honor of William's remarkable life, his family will gather in a private ceremony to share memories and celebrate the man who brought so much joy and love into their lives. William's spirit will live on in the hearts of his loved ones and the countless lives he touched with his extraordinary compassion and warmth.
