William Bennett Supper passed away on May 28, 2023 at the age of 30. Known as "Bennett" to his family and "Will" to his friends and co-workers, he is survived by his parents, Amy Supper and William J Supper Jr., his sister Olivia Supper, his grandparents Barry and Denise Young, and his daughter Izabella Supper, along with a large extended family of aunts, great-aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Bennett loved his job as a local taxi driver and enjoyed meeting new people in the community. Bennett was a helper; if anyone needed anything he could provide, he would volunteer to help. Bennett helped others to move, fixed cars, provided free rides, loaned money, ran errands, or helped to organize someone's house or yard. Bennett had a particular soft spot for the elderly. He was patient and kind with them, and truly enjoyed listening to their stories. Bennett did not believe in judging people and instead believed that all people deserve to be respected and cared for, no matter their personal situation or circumstances. It was a beautiful part of his personality.
Bennett knew how to laugh (and had an infectious, distinctive giggle). He was a prankster, loving nothing more than to tell a silly joke or "trick" an unsuspecting family member (his mom being his favorite "target")! He would laugh and laugh, and that laugh was contagious. He loved comedy (movies and stand-up), playing video games, getting tattoos, taking long drives, and listening to music. Most of all, he loved his friends. Bennett was selective with the people he pulled into his inner circle, but if he called you friend, there was nothing he wouldn't do to protect that friendship.
Bennett also loved his family. He often would instigate storytelling to hear family anecdotes and to add his spin to these stories. He was a proud big brother and would tell anyone he met about his talented, artist sister. He loved family get-togethers and made it a priority to attend anytime it was possible.
Bennett was a loving dad. He adored his five-year-old daughter "Izzy" and was a great "girl-dad." He would let her paint his face, made homemade glitter slime with her, took her on walks, taught her to ride a scooter, and was happiest when around her. He was grateful for Izzy's maternal grandparents, Susie and Phil Stepro, for providing Izzy a safe home and caring for her when he was unable.
He has a big, loving family who will miss him dearly.
It was a life that was too short; a sometimes imperfect life, but a complete life.
He will be deeply, forever missed by his friends and family.
His family has made the decision to delay memorial services at this time. A celebration of life is planned for a future date to allow family and friends to attend and tell those funny stories that he loved so much.

William, I sure do miss your morning wake up calls at 430am. You saying "wakey wakey it's time to get up" in your funny voice. You telling me about your night while I put my makeup on for work. Seems so silly but my mornings are so different and boring now. You always had funny stories to tell me. I will never forget the one time we was talking and the bird flew in the window while you were driving. You couldn't wait to show Andrea S the video. You will always be missed. Prayers for the family I know you loved so much.
