William Roettger

William “Bill” Roettger , age 61, of Webster, passed away unexpectedly on December 9, 2018 at his home.
Bill was born on May 2, 1957 in Hudson, WI, to parents Joyce (Linehan) and Earl Roettger Jr. He graduated from Hudson High School in 1975.
On April 8, 1983, Bill married Linda Taylor and together they raised one daughter, Jennifer.
Bill was employed by Anderson Windows in Bayport, MN, for 36 years. He was a man of all trades – for better or worse. He enjoyed volunteering, which he considered his fulltime job. He often helped chop wood with the boy scouts and the Interfaith Caregivers. He belonged to many clubs, some of which included the ATV club, Burnett Co. Snow Trails Association, the Yellow Lake River Association – and was dubbed the official “mayor” of Yellow Lake.
Bill was loved by all who knew him. He truly was the rock of his family, the true definition of a family man. He will be deeply missed for his loving personality, big heart and his famous bearhugs.
Preceding Bill in death are his parents; sister, Marge Roettger; and brother, Baby Dennis.
Bill is survived by his loving wife of 34 years, Linda; daughter, Jennifer; mini-me, best friend and famous grandson, Connor; siblings: Dave (Diane) Roettger, Sandi (Larry) West, Debbie (Rick) Sunby, Brenda Roettger and Sue (Jim) Swanson; brother-in-law, Gary (Karen) Taylor; father-in-law, Forest Taylor; and many nieces, nephews, relatives and friends – who were considered family.
The Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, January 12, 2019 at 2:00pm with a visitation from 10:00am – 2:00pm at Northwoods Crossing Event Center – Tesora in Siren, WI.
In lieu of flowers, please send memorial donations to Interfaith Caregivers.
