After several heart attacks and now a breathing problem that was thought to be another heart attack,a MRI revealed a spot on his lungs.It is caused by asbetos.
Bill a war vet Korea,Vietnam,construction in Army and mechanic.
He and his wife most recently were very involved in the civil air patrol in Tillamook County.Credited not only for training of new recruits,also very involved in the logistics of the Civil air patrol.He has countless rescue missions.Remember the BIG floods.?He along with other were out there when others did not dare. Search for missing persons, some with happy endings some not.
Believe it or not is still invovled by computer and now and even though he is going through cemo now has a scooter and seems to be ripping around some.He also done work with Houses for Humanity.The list goes on and on.
An avid fisherman can tell stories about how the rivers and bays used to be.Stories told of the Tillammok burn.Avid hunter.
Even at his age was almost nonstop.Always working on something or helping someone out.It hurts him most he cant go go go now.Still gets up at 4-4:30 like he has well as long as I have known him.One can guess how many sunrises he has seen.
He and his wife Karen reside in Bay City.Still can once in a while Go to the jetty and well watch the waves roll in and out along with tide changes.Once again wonder how many tide changes he has seen.
Willing to give you shirt off his back.Prayers are needed.He has plenty of fight in him.But with the drugs and cemo it has knocked him down.But is still optamistic.Still concearned about every one else.His wife always has a smile.And is by his side seems to be positive.She is truely an

sent from heaven.
Please pray for Karen as well she keep up her strenth and help for her as well through this obstical in life. And can somehow keep that wonderfull smile on her face in this time of troubles.Both are very active in their church.If I am not mistaking Bill is an ordained minister.
Thanx in advance for the prayers.In numbers we all can make a diffrence.
