William "Bill" Socha, 79, Pulaski, passed away unexpectedly at his home on Friday, June 24, 2022. The son of the late Casimir and Adeline (Skarzynski) Socha was born April 17, 1943, in the township of Angelica and graduated from Pulaski High School. Bill worked as a millwright at Procter & Gamble for 35 years.

On May 9, 1964, he married Audrey Jach at St. Stanislaus Church in Hofa Park. Bill and Audrey built their home and raised their five children in Ashwaubenon. He loved to spend time fishing, boating, and camping. Bill spent his summers coaching softball and baseball for all five of his kids. He was their biggest supporter and traveled all over the country to cheer them on at their games. Bill and Audrey loved to build family traditions, hosting all of the family's get-togethers. The children and grandchildren held a special place in his heart and he always enjoyed the time they spent together.

Survivors include his wife of 58 years, Audrey; his children: Brenda (Kevin) Greening, Bonnie Murray, Rick (Lori) Socha, Scott (Heidi) Socha, and Timothy (Jessica) Socha; his 12 grandchildren: Graham, Tristan (Jessica), Brady, Shelby, Olivia, Allyson, Collin, Macoy, Maisie, Madden, Alexa, and AJ. He is further survived by three brothers: Thomas (Joan), Bernard (June), James (Kim); four sisters: Rita (Irvin) Rozmiarek, Mary Socha, Agnes (Robert) Miller, and Clara (Fred) Fleischman; one sister-in-law: Mary Ellen Socha; many nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends. He was preceded in death by a brother: Sylvester Socha; and a sister and brother-in-law: Betty and Dick Ostry.

Family and friends are invited to gather at Ss. Edward & Isidore Church, 3667 Flintville Rd. Suamico, from 9-11 a.m. Thursday, June 30th. The Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 11:00 a.m. Thursday, Fr. David Hoffman presiding. Entombment will take place in Allouez Chapel Mausoleum.

You have my deepest sympathy for your loss. He was a wonderful kind-hearted man. I remember our families spending New Years together, going boating and ice-fishing growing up. May all your memories shared together help you all through this difficult time.
