William was preceeded in death by his younger brother James, and his parents. He was survived by his wife and children, one sister, Pamela Milliron Jarvinen, and two sweet grand-daughters.
William was a retiree of Ford Motor Company and had been active for many years with the Golf Manor Fire Dept.
In the recent years he had became a member with the Masonic Temple and was a frequent enthusiast in a country dance group.
William was known to most as Bill, and was a very fun, friendly, gentile soul. He will be missed greatly for his humor and quiet mannerism.
author note:
Billy was my brother and there were 20 years separating our ages. My fondest memories are the times Billy spent with me as a little girl. Halloween was a special time, not just because it was his birthday but because he would take me trick or treating when I was very young. One year my mother did not have the money to buy me a costume and Billy asked me what I wanted to be. I said a princess and the next thing I knew I was wearing a pink and white princess costume and walking through the neighborhood with him collecting candy. Billy was a great brother, even though many people saw his age and thought he was my dad. When I was older, I always thought of him, as such a strong person and I know now that even strong can be fracturable at times. I don't think Bill ever allowed himself to have faults and over time the stress of losing our parents and other personal problems compacted into too much for his head to bear. I don't excuse what happened that day in 1998, but I love my brother and nothing will ever change that. On Halloween every year, I celebrate the life that was my brother, a wonderful man with a great sense of humor who was a hard worker and proud father.
Halloween is my favorite time of year.
