He married his high school sweetheart, Pamela “Pam” Kerkhoff on October 8, 1983 and together they built a beautiful life with their two amazing children Krystal and Joshua. Bill liked being outdoors enjoying nature and hunting and also loved spending time with family and friends. He spent countless hours working in his shop fixing small engines and being the “family mechanic”. Bill found great joy in family vacations when his children were young and never missed an opportunity to spend time with them. He also enjoyed the times up-north, snowmobiling, boating, three wheeling and just making memories. Bill also loved the camping trips with his family and friends and his most recent joy was bringing his grandchildren for rides in his UTV and if you ever needed to find him he’d be outside swinging on his swing. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, son, brother and a friend to many and will always be lovingly remembered and sorrowfully missed. He leaves behind his wife Pamela, children Krystal (Eric) Raleigh and Joshua (Kayla) Guns and four grandchildren Callie, Conner, Alton and Bryndel.
