William Halprin Obituary
A lifelong resident of Norfolk, Bill graduated from Old Dominion University. He worked for the majority of his adult life at SL Nusbaum Realty Co, where he most recently served as Senior Vice President. He was a two-term President of the Tidewater Builders Association and on the Board of the Beth Sholom Home.
Left to cherish Bill's memory is his beloved wife of 46 years, Jeri Jo Halprin, daughter, Peri Halprin, son, Brian Halprin and wife Laura, sister, Diane Harrell and husband Frank, and brother-in-law Richard Roman.
William enjoyed travel, spending time in the Outer Banks, his weekly poker game, and shaking a leg at countless family functions where he invented "The Billy". Without a doubt, William's greatest passion was his family. He leaves behind a community of countless family and friends who loved him dearly for his generosity, kindness and integrity.
A graveside service will be held for William on Tuesday, June 6, 2023 at 10:00 AM at Forest Lawn Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in Bill's name to a charity of your choosing. His family does ask that whenever "Stairway to Heaven" plays, please listen to it in its entirety in memory of Bill. Online condolences may be shared with the family at www.hdoliver.com

It was very sad to hear of the loss of Billy Halprin. May he "Rest In Peace" and know that he will be missed by so many!! Having worked with Billy many years ago it´s easy to see why he was loved by so many. He was a very hard worker, fair & honest person to all. My prayers go out to his wife (Jeri), all family members & friends. GOD BLESS THE LIFE OF BILLY!!
