My condolences to the Ivy family, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Bill was such an amazing person, he will be missed deeply. I only had the privilege of knowing Bill for about 6 years but it's without a doubt he had a huge impact on my life. He was the most generous, kind, and easy to be around person I could possibly think of. He always had a joke or story, or would be happy to talk the finer details of cartridge reloading or rifle building for hours on end. The first thought that comes to mind when I shoot an impressive group at the range is that I need to take a picture and text Bill, he will appreciate it! Bill always did more than his fair share of the work at whatever hunting camp he was at and never complained about the pain that he was surely having in his back or anywhere else. It was such a pleasure being able to spend that time with him on those trips. If there's hunting in the next life, those trophies better watch out!

My thoughts and prayers to the entire Ivy family. I had the pleasure of working with Bill at InSinkErator for a number of years and enjoyed every minute of our time together. He was really “one of the good guys”, always approachable. I will always remember his wry smile and sense of humor. RIP my friend.

Bill was our dear dear friend. He was a role model for Todd and Chad after they lost their dad to cancer. So appreciate the time, kindness and fun he showed my sons. We loved all the camping trips, baseball trips, barbecues and parties we shared with the Ivy’s. Every time I saw Bill he had a new joke!!! He left some big footprints and they will be always in our hearts. Our love to Pat, Ryan, Kelly and families. Robin and Todd Rupert, Hally and Chad Rupert and Jodie Rupert

My prayers are with Bill's family. I am so sorry to hear of his passing. Bill was a great friend for many years. He went above and beyond for me and others at Insinkerator. We had a few at Ron's as well as Well's Bros. We will all miss his genuine smile. A great class act. Always willing to help everyone.

I had the good fortune to meet and play basketball with Bill at UWP. Since then, I would only see him occasionally, but our friendship stayed the same and we could always pick up right where we left off. Sincere sympathy to Patty and the family. Bill was a great guy who will be missed by all who knew him.

We wish to extend our deepest condolences to all the family. Bill was such a kind and gracious man at work and always a smile on his face and kind words to say. Even people that did not work directly with Bill knew him when he walked through the factory as he was just the kind who would say "Hello" to anyone who would cross his path. He was missed by many when he retired and we know now he will truly be missed. What a nice man and such a gentle soul. May he rest in peace .

Reading the condolences confirms to me that what he was in high school, he carried with him all through life. He was sensitive, caring and a gentleman. I believe captain of the basketball team, I still have photos of him in an old scrap book with the game clock ticking down with 1 second left bringing us to victory. He was the prom King for the '67 Falconers. He will always be the king in our hearts. Prayers for his family. It's so hard to learn to live without the cornerstone.

I had the privilege to work with Bill for roughly 17 years at InSinkErator. A class act. Sincere. Authentic. What you see is what you get. No surprises. A man you can trust. My sincere condolences to Patty and the family. We are sorry for your loss--and we feel the depth of your loss because he touched our lives as well. We were bless to know him.

Bill was a top-notch businessman who was certainly key in building InSinkErator into the successful company it is today. But more importantly, he always kept the employees in mind in everything he did. He understood that an organization is not just about numbers, it is really about the people. A rare man indeed. I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to work alongside him. My deepest sympathies to Bill's family and friends who will miss him and remember him always.

I am so saddened to hear of the passage of Bill. I have known him for a long time, as our boys played sports together and then followed each other into their hunting passion and followed also in their construction careers. They remain best friends to this day. Bill was like a 2nd Dad to my son and he and Pat were always special to us. Funny that both our girls are named Kelly & Kelli. Bill, you will be missed, but may your now rest in peace with our Lord. Pat, Ryan, & Kelly - if there is ever anything I can do for you, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. Sending much love and hugs to all of you. Carol

Bill and I were teammates twice. 3-time champs of Little League baseball, including an undefeated season. He was a great catcher. We were also starters on an undefeated conference champion UWK basketball team. He was a champion in every sense of the word. I still have a fond memory of a sleepover at Billys, with him teaching me to shoot a BB gun at a pond near his house. So sad to hear he has passed. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
