William D. Greely

“Sweet” William D. Greely Sr.

Bill Greely was born on April 28th, 1946. At age 78, went to be with the Lord our Savior on Wednesday July 17th, while surrounded by his family. He passed away from complications of Lewy Body Dementia.

He was an avid outdoorsman, who could always be found in the garage, in a tree stand or with a fishing pole in hand, always doing what he loved. He was an amazing carpenter by trade, and much of his work can still be seen today.

One of his greatest honors was his service in the Army National Guard.

Bill married his beloved wife Dianne, the light of his life, on December 6th, 1969, and celebrated 54 years of marriage together.

He is Survived by wife Dianne; son Bill Greely Jr., Superior, Wi; daughter Bobbie (Tony) Gotelaere, South Range, WI; grandchildren, who were the apples of his eye, Austin; Rhiana (Hunter), Megan, and Mya; great-grandchildren Joel and Jaxon; siblings Sharyn Remer, Sally Thompson, Sandra (Chet) Petzold, Sheila (John) Parker, Susan Greely, and Stacey Greely.

Bill is preceded in death by his parents William and Jane, his sister Shelly, and his grandson Bradley.

Visitation will be held at 10:00 AM on Saturday, July 27, 2024, at First Covenant Church, 3311 Hammond Avenue Superior, WI and will continue until the Memorial Service at 11:00 AM. Afterwards all are welcome to join us in celebrating his life at Log Cabin Tavern, 2821 S. County Road E in South Range.

Our deepest heartfelt thank you is extended to St. Lukes Hospice care for cherishing him with us in his final moments. The woods are silent today.
