Judy Roehl wrote a sympathy message

“Dear Linda and Bill's sons and families, I had the priviledge and honor of knowing and working with Bill for many many years at WPS. I am so happy that he got to enjoy a long and rich retirement - he deserved it. He was a man of his word, a good friend and kind to all who met him. I will dearly miss him. Bruce Roehl”
