William Thomas Krabbe

William Thomas Krabbe, age 92, passed away on Thursday, May 1, 2025. He was born on April 14, 1933, in Cleveland, Ohio, to Mae M. (nee Smith) and William H. Krabbe.
He will be dearly missed by his loving wife, Marlene A. (nee Miller) Krabbe; his children, Diane Krabbe (Sandy), Susan (Thomas) Toplack, Richard (Jennifer) Krabbe and Robert Krabbe (Andy); grandchildren, Becky (Jason), Matthew, Michael (Sky), Alexa, Jordan and Grace; great grandchildren, Isabella and Tessa.
William shared 69 beautiful years of marriage with his devoted wife, Marlene. Their bond was an inspiring testament to love, commitment, and friendship.
A man with a heart as big as his smile, Bill was always ready to lend a helping hand. Whether it was family, a friend, or a stranger in need, he offered kindness, support, and genuine care without hesitation. His warm spirit, love for laughter, and endless supply of jokes made him the light in every room.
He was a devoted family man who took great pride in his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. His greatest joy came from simply being surrounded by those he loved-offering guidance, laughter, and unconditional support.
In his free time, Bill enjoyed teeing off on the golf course, tapping his toes to big band greats like Glenn Miller, and settling in to watch classic cowboy westerns. His interests reflected his timeless charm and easygoing nature.
