I am so happy to have gotten to see and visit with Bill and Connie a few years ago at a BBQ. I have a lot of good memories of Bill at our ranch. He even lived there in one of the cabins for a short time. For sure there was never a dull moment around him. So sorry to hear he is gone...he will never be forgotten.

One thing you can always count on is Family and Friends. I am proud to say that Eric is one of my best friends, since we were 5 years old. Due to our friendship, I am blessed to know Bill, Connie, and all the family and cousins. My condolences to you all. Bill will be missed greatly. Find comfort in knowing you all have a wonderful family, and friends, that care about each one of you very much. Please reach out when you feel the need to talk.
Bill was a true inspiration to all who knew him. God bless you sir. Safe travels.

My family was lucky enough to have Bill in our life. One summer when we still lived in town and not on the river Bill left his horse in our care. And of course our small backyard was a perfect place for the horse to trim the grass around the fence. My mother while hanging up the laundry forgot and let the door open and you know who just walked right in. Hard to get that horse out of the kitchen. A ton of memories from a wonderful man. All my love.

Paul,
If your parents were Chuck and Doris they were two of my favorites. I know Bill thought a lot of them too.
I am glad you knew Bill and shared your story. Thank you so much.
I knew Don and Irene as well.
Hopefully our family will meet you one day.
Love,
Connie Schmalz & family.
