Bill would like you to know that his work is done here at the young age of 80. He received a call, a sort of an offer you can't refuse, for an appointment from which he will not be returning. This assignment comes with a huge sign-on bonus. A reunion of family, friends and many beloved pets he has not seen in a long time. Serious bass fishing, an abundance of mushroom hunting, music, and laughter.
He was introduced into this world as William Edward Dalbey by his parents, the son of Albert Dalbey and his wife. Preceding him, his parents, a brother (James), sister (Carlene), various aunts and uncles, several cousins, an abundance of friends, and pets.
His many achievements and success were in becoming an EMT, paramedic, firefighter, and police officer. He was a semi pro ball player in his youth, (pitcher). Instrumental in the start up of Tri-Village Rescue Squad with only a hand full of folks who had nothing but a dream and utter devotion. An avid outdoorsman, sharp shooter, bass pro man before there was such a thing. Great sense of humor, artistic, loved the slots and the Arizona Desert.
He will be sorely missed by his children (Anita), (Carey) his grandchildren (Valerie), (Chelsea), (Brandon) and (Cody). Great Grands (Teagan) and (Timothy).
Following his wishes, there will be no services, however well wishers are encouraged to write a note of farewell to any family member they wish. Cremation will take place at the convenience of the family and his ashes will be spread among some of his favorite places, particularly Arizona. Riggle-Waltermann is handling all arrangements.
