William Foulk Obituary

William "Bill" L. Foulk

March 11, 1965 - September 14, 2025

William "Bill" L. Foulk, 60, of Grand Island, died on Sunday, September 14, 2025 at Emerald Nursing & Rehab Lakeview in Grand Island. Graveside services will be held on Wednesday, September 17, 2025 at 2 p.m. at Central City Cemetery with Pastor Mark Hartley officiating. Interment will be held at the Central City Cemetery. In honor of Bill's love for the Huskers, the family encourages everyone to wear their Husker attire.

Memorials are suggested to The Special Olympics. Condolences may be sent to the family at www.soltwagnerfuneral.com.

Bill was born on March 11, 1965 to Myron and Sondra (Woodring) Foulk in Central City. He grew up in the Central City area, and graduated from Grand Island Senior High. Following his graduation he entered the Mid-Nebraska Individual Services program. He was able to live on his own in an apartment in Grand Island. That was a big step for Bill, getting to have his own independence. He then began volunteering at the Red Cross and Goodwill in Grand Island for many years.

Bill was a huge Nebraska Cornhuskers fan, as well as the Kansas City Royals and New England Patriots. He enjoyed karaoke and dancing, and won many medals with The Special Olympics in bowling. One of his greatest enjoyments were getting to travel all over the United States with the group "Special Journeys". Wherever Bill went people knew him and more importantly he would remember them by name.

Those left to cherish his memory are his mother, Sondra of Central City; his siblings, Laurie (Mark) Gansebom of Wayne, Rick Foulk of Grand Island, and Melissa (Ed) Mundt of York; and many nieces, nephews, and cousins.

He was preceded in death by his father, Myron; nephew, Scott Gansebom; and sister-in-law, Teresa Foulk.
