I had a few early casual encounters with Bill but when ECIA needed an assistant, a county supervisor arranged a meeting in Dyersville and I was pleased Bill was interested. He was a great coworker.
After I left Dubuque I made several successful attempts to visit or call Bill. Just this Spring we had a chat on Iowa's political primary selection and I was looking forward to talking again. Rest in peace Bill. I will remember you for the rest of my life and we may meet again.

So sad that one of the most humble, nicest guys ever has gone home to god. What an outstanding father and gentelman he was.
I was on the executive board of ECIA when Bill present us with a situation. A program that had recieved a grant the year wasn't going to be funded the next. Bill said 2 people would need to be layed off, but wouldn't do it. He offered to work for free until more funding could be found. He said, "I hired them, the quit another job and now wouldn't have income." He was going to work for free so they could be paid. That was the kind of man I was proud to call me friend.

Bill was a great guy, and he worked hard at running ECIA with a thoughtful and even hand that may not have been fully appreciated through the years. I worked for Bill around 15 years before he was hired by the City of Dubuque, and while I was out helping small communities in the region, I would usually be asked by the long-time city clerks how Bill was doing, they didn't see him anymore but remembered his gentle nature from the earlier days when he came to the city halls to help out (and it left me feeling I had big shoes to fill in my corner of ECIA). So long Bill.

I met Bill as a 20 year old college student. Bill believed in me and took a chance and hired me as the ECIA Account Clerk. He helped launch my career. It is hard to believe it is 40 years later and Bill has passed away. I cannot thank him enough for all he did for ECIA and for me personally. May he rest in peace and may we all find our own peace in our cherished memories. Kelley Deutmeyer

I am deeply saddened by the loss of Bill. My sympathies to his family. His work in the Greater Dubuque area will be long-lasting and very meaningful to many, many people. He was a true humanitarian and leader of others. He was an important mentor and working associate to me during my years with ECIA. His memory will live large.
