He is preceded in death by his parents; his brothers, Virgil, John, Frank, Richard; and his sisters, Maxine, Beatrice and Marilyn. At the age of 91, Bill is the last of Maxwell and Rosella's children to pass away. Special mention must be made of his two beloved nieces who passed away earlier this year, Sharon Rosell and Alison (Rosell) Smeltzer.

Bill graduated from St. Mary's Cathedral High Scholl in 1946. He was Honorably Discharged from the United States Army in 1952 as a Corporal. Bill worked in the bindery of many printing companies during his career beginning in Wichita, principally with McCormick Armstrong, and then throughout the United States until his retirement.

On September 26, 1953, he married Wilma Ann (Blough) Rosell now deceased. Besides his wife Janet, Bill is survived by his four daughters, Kathryn Lynn Rosell, Ruth Ann (Dan) Knolla, Dana Marie (Larry) Fugate and Beverly Jo (Eddie) Ledoux; six grandchildren, Ryan (Lindsey) Wasinger, Brett (Kristen) Wasinger, Colin Wasinger, Jeremy Rosell, Dana Neuse and Zachary (Ashley) Knolla; five great-grandchildren, Greyson, Crew, Penelope, Oliver and Norah; his sister-in-law, Bobbe Rosell; and numerous beloved nieces and nephews.

Bill and Janet spent over 10 years traveling in their RV visiting campsites and relatives all over the United States. These years were some of his fondest memories, but he chose to be buried in Wichita because it was always his home.
