So sorry to just learn of the loss of Dr. Crucs. He was my dentist for over 30 years, until his retirement. He was such a sweet, kind, thoughtful man, always interested in what was going on in my life at the time. He will be missed by so many people.
May God soothe your hearts and Bless you always.

I only knew Bill for a few years, golfing in the Kiwanis league and seeing him at the wellness center working out. I'm so sad to read of his passing. He was a wonderful person to talk to and I will miss his friendly presence. So very sorry for your loss.

I am saddened to read of Dr. Cruc's passing and offer my condolences to the family.
He was my dentist for many, many years and although I wasn't always excited to 'go to the dentist' ~ he always had a smile on his face that made you forget about that. What a wonderful personality he had and most often a funny story to tell as you sat there ~ unable to respond except with a grunt or two! I will remember him with fondness. A nice man.

I'll miss my old golf partner in Kiwanis group. Rolling down the fairways was always a joy no matter how we did that day. That was the Bill lived his life. Ray Shelker
