William Ireland
Bill always brought a smile to our faces when we worked together at MidAmerican. His stories were legendary. Our prayers are with you.
Someone so special can never be forgotten. No words can describe how sorry I am for your loss.
So shocked to hear of Bill's passing. We enjoyed playing poker with him and discussing sports. Very nice fellow and will be missed.
I remember Bill and how friendly he was to everyone in the old neighborhood on Carter Street. We lived up the hill at 317 and your 3 daughters and my 3 kids (Scott, Missy & Shaun) were very close in age, though I don't think they played together a lot. What a great neighborhood it was to raise a family, though! I was so sorry to hear of your family's loss.
Karon and family so sorry to hear of Bill's passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
We were so shocked when we heard of Bill's death. We are so sorry for your loss. Please know that your family is in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Ken and Judy Bracy

I'm so sorry to hear about you loosing bill saying prayers
Karon and family, So sorry to hear of Bill's death! He was always my favorite cousin, we grew up in a simpler time when you got together with family almost every week for a meal. As a" little kid", five+ years younger than he, I spent lots of time waiting for him to get done watching TV sports on Sunday afternoon so he would play checkers or some other game with me :). He started our family cousin reunion so many years ago and rarely missed attending it! I will sure miss him... Prayers for all of you.
Karon - We so enjoyed working with Bill and hearing his fun softball stories. We will all remember his integrity and smile. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Karon Bill will be sorely missed by all, I remember back when we used to talk about all kinds of sports (Bears & Cubs) It was nice to know that he would help Cathy sometimes, she was very upset when she saw him... I was just thinking about him not to long ago, wondering how everyone was doing. Our prayers are with you and your family. Diana
It's very hard to loose a friend, especially a friend like Bill.We had alot of good times and memories that will last forever. We will miss you
I am so sorry for your loss. I was a classmate of Bills. My prayers for you and your family. Dee Kelley
Wow, where do I start. I was so shocked to see Bill had past. He was one of my first softball coaches with the Cedar Hills Booster Club in the 70s. We reconnected when he was an umpire for my stepdaughter in the 1990s-2000. Reconnecting again when he walked in the door of the salon I was at in Cedar Hills. What a previlage to cut Bills hair. Never got to cut it all, just what stuck out under that ball cap glued to his head. Lol lol never seen a man more passionate about sports and supporting the kids he met. He will truly be missed.
Karon, I can't tell you how shocked we are on Bills death. He came into our Monday night fantasy football league with Steve Petsel. An unlikely addition his passion for football, food, and especially cards made him fit right in. We are all better for knowing Bill and will miss him greatly. RIP my friend. Jay Gunn
Karon...we are so sorry to hear of Bill's passing. We just found out today, sorry we were not able to attend his service. Hugs and prayers.
I was so sorry to hear about Bill's passing. I will always remember him as the favorite umpire during our softball games with Cedar Hills Booster Club. He was always encouraging us and offering tips to help us out during the game. He was a great guy and will be missed by many!
Karon and family, So sorry for your loss. Bill was a good coworker and friend. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all, especially today. Russ and Judy Blom
Karon and family, I'm so sorry to hear this news. Bill will be sorely missed by all of the Hertz employees at the airport. His humor just made him a joy to be around! My heart breaks for all of you and you will be in our thoughts and prayers in the coming days.
I was so sorry to hear of Bill's passing. He was a wonderful person and a great friend to all. I share in your grief. Wild Bill - you will be missed.
