Bill, a United States Navy Vietnam Veteran, died at home with his family by his side on Monday, August 10, 2020.  He was born in Newark, Ohio on December 11, 1945, to the late Raymond John and Luella May (Rogers) Wolfle.

He attended Newark High School and worked for many years at Schuler Engineering, retiring from Ohio Steel.  Bill was devoted to his family, and especially enjoyed spending time with his grandchildren.  He was a father figure to many, and was selfless with his help and time whenever anyone needed a hand.  He loved to laugh and make others laugh as well.  His kindness will always be remembered.
