So sorry to hear of Bill's passing. I worked with him at Hawkeye Bank for many years, then at Waukee State Bank. Great memories. He was a loan officer and I was a loan assistant when I started my career. He took time to explain things to me and teach me the ropes. He was a kind, fun loving person with a good heart. My sympathies to your family.
