William Salisbury Obituary
Bill worked as an electrician for more than 40 years. He spent most of that time with Brown University, FEMA, and most recently retired from Bryant University in 2020.
He enjoyed spending time with his four grandchildren and would travel to Oregon and Maryland as much as he could. He also enjoyed spending time in Las Vegas with his cousin Dale. Bill liked to spend his free time riding his bike on the local bike paths and taking long walks with an iced coffee.
Bill is survived by his daughters, Holly and Dan Veres (Ben and Noah) of Oregon and Jill and Hal Speisman (Emmie and Elena) of Maryland. His brother, Jim and Marilyn of Johnston, sister Nancy Lindsey of Providence and sister-in-law Donna Salisbury of Attleboro. He is preceded in death by his parents, Russell and Barbara (Sullivan) Salisbury, his brother Russell (Jack) Salisbury, and brother-in-law Dennis Lindsey.
A Memorial Service will be held on Friday January 30th, 2026 at 11am in the Anderson-Winfield Funeral Home, Route 44 at Greenville Common, Greenville, RI. His burial will be private. Visitation will be held from 10am to 11am on Friday January 30th.
