Will was heavily into genealogy. He and Bernice were Mormans. Will was a Master Sargent in the US Army during World War II.
His funeral service was at the First Ward-Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Payette, with Bishop Curt Oxnam officiating. Private burial followed at Park View Cemetery, New Plymouth, under the direction of Payette Chapel of the Roses.
His daughter Tina wrote (in Sept 2012): Will died of heart failure. He was named after some good friends of the Daddows'. Unfortunately he was often mistaken for a girl in written correspondence. He wanted to go to airplane flight school to learn to fly and they sent him a letter stating they did not have a place for females at that time. He thereafter went by Will. He loved to fly airplanes.
Unfortunately he was color blind so he was not able to fly airplanes in the war. He was a Master Sargent in World War II. He was in Normandy and other places. I am glad he was color blind as the pilots in the war did not have a very good return home to family alive rate. He was a wonderful kind father. He taught me how to fly small airplanes. He taught many others how to fly planes. He worked for the FAA for many years. He went to computer school (in Oklahoma) for them in the 60's and 70's. He loved technology. His family had a nick name for him; it was Sonny. His Aunt Orley from Nebraska called him Billy. Along with my three siblings we called him Dad.
He married Bernice Scott. She is buried in the same plot as he. Her grave stone is separate. She died from cancer, which she beat but it lead to kidney dialysis. She fought it valiantly for 30 years, on and off. She liked to build houses. Will was an electrician by trade as that is what his father Edgar was and he taught all his sons this trade. They had a family business. He wired her first house. She like to say he lit up her life! She love to sit down and draw a house plan and then go find a lot and build it. We would live in in for a year then she would do it all again. While I lived with them, prior to my marriage, they built 19 homes. They built many more after that, but I don't know how many there were altogether. They did a write up about her in the Heyburn Idaho paper. She would actually get a hammer and build the houses. She said she would rather build a house than clean one. She was a unique woman.
