Bill was preceded in death by his parents; two sisters, Barb Frankenstein and Mary Hupf; a brother-in-law, Herbert Frankenstein; and a sister-in-law, Kathleen Stofflet.

The family wishes to extend a heartfelt thank you to the nurses and staff of Hillside Manor and Hospice for their wonderful care and support.
