William “Bill” Wyckoff
May 20, 1944 - April 3, 2017
Bill passed away on April 3 2017 after a short battle with a very aggressive form of ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease). Bill was born in Greenville Mississippi on May 20, 1944. He grew up in Tacoma, Washington and was a graduate of Lincoln High School; he served in the US Navy from 1962-1968 and work for more than 40 years as an Exterior Electrician and Under Ground Cable Inspector. He had a love for reading, coffee and camel cigarettes.
Bill is survived by his loving wife of 50 years Kathy, daughter and son in-law Tami and Gary Bailey, grandchildren Alyssa, Ryan and Brittany as well as numerous nieces and nephews. His parents Glen and Christine Wyckoff, daughter Shelly Crowder, sisters Bessie and Betty preceded him in death.
Bill was a no fuss guy that didn’t like a lot of attention so there will be no services at this time. He requested that we “go about our business”.
He was a loving husband, father and friend. He will be missed by all that knew him.
Rest Easy Papa. Love you always.
