Written by: Cecilia Padfield , Wife/widow
Bill was attending the U of Washington when he joined the Marines, he graduated, got his commission, and 8 months later was sent to Vietnam. We lived on base when he got home, and he later had a career as an accountant. In 2004, he began having medical problems and was confined to a wheelchair. It took over two years for the correct diagnosis. He eventually was in hospice and died here at home on 2-29-2008. He was the love of my life, and he is greatly missed.
