William "Bill" Richard DeMoss

He was born in Pontiac, Illinois on July 18, 1937. Bill joined the Air Force and was stationed in France. After his service he lived in Bloomington Illinois for many years with his wife and two daughters. They eventually divorced and his sense of adventure drew him to Colorado in 1983. In the ensuing years he lived in Fort Collins, Idaho Springs, and Loveland. He passed away peacefully surrounded by family. He was a loving father, uncle, and friend with a unique sense of humor and generosity that touched many lives. He loved animals and rescued many throughout his life.

Memorial contributions in his name may be made to the Rocky Mountain Raptor Program www.rmrp.org.

The family would like to thank the staff of Lemay Avenue Health and Rehab in Fort Collins, Colorado for their excellent care in the last years of life.
