He was the most loving father. He was thoughtful, polite, adventurous, funny compassionate, faithful and wise. He taught us how to respect others and to live a life full of joy. The adventures we had are wonderful memories we will keep forever.

I love my grandpa so dearly. He always supported my art, pinning it proudly on the fridge. He taught me so many things throughout so many years. He openly and loudly loved all of us, and I will always miss him.
My condolences to Andy and Jodi
Grateful for all of the good times playing cards, watching Lawrence Welk together, and for Grandpa Bill’s support in all of my life endeavors!
It is often said that as you get older, you become more of who you really are. As dad's life came to an end, I wondered how he would be. Would he become bitter, fearful, selfish, or turn inward. What we saw these last months was dad full of gratitude, grateful for every little thing the nurses did, no matter how much they poked and prodded, he would reply with kindness and appreciation. He was clever and witty and thoughtful and considerate. I remember guarding the hospital doorway many nights as he would otherwise walk to the hallway to aid fellow patient's calls for help. He was a servant, shepherd, protector, and encourager to so many of us, yet he didn't know it- and he is my dad.
