In memory of our loved one, William Lane, 70 years of age, who was born on April 24, 1943, and passed on January 19, 2014. We will remember him forever as a beloved husband to Margaret, father of four children, father-in-law, papa to eight grandchildren, brother to Judy, brother-in-law to Herbert, uncle, cousin, and friend to many. He will be missed, and his memory will be with those who loved him forever, including family and friends.
He was a soft spoken, caring man, who had a passion for sports and his four legged friends. He served honorably in the U.S. Army for 3 years, and was also a dedicated employee at Ford Motor Company for 35. We will always love him, as he will remain in our hearts forever.
Please feel free to add any comments, stories or pictures that you wish to celebrate William's memory.
Donations in William's name can be made to the Golden Retriever Rescue fund of Mid Florida at GRRMF.Org

I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FIRST
It feels like it wasn't too long ago that I saw you down at my soccer game at University of South Florida. I know how much of a Michigan fan you were and I am so happy that you got to see me in that Maize jersey representing the Block M. I know how proud of me you were. It meant so much to me having you and grandma at that game. Even though we didn't get to see each other all that much because we lived so far away from each other, I still love you so much more than you will ever know! I know that you are going to be watching over me and our family at all times and I know that that Michigan basketball win over MSU was a way of telling me and the rest of our family that everything is going to be okay. I will forever miss you Papa Bill and I love you so much!!!
Love, Nick
visiting friends and relatives Margaret and Bill invited us for a
barbecue at their home in Flat Rock, MI. Bill did all the barbecuing
and Margaret did the goodies that go along with the barbecue.
This is how I remember Bill, and, of course, our get-to-gathers for
breakfasts after Bill and Margaret moved to Florida from Las Vegas
May God Bless Your Soul.

The Favorite Holiday
During one of our many 4th celebrations, Uncle Bill showed his pyrotech skills by ligting off the fire works and bottle rockets. The landed into Al's NEW garage. O2 tanks were stored in the garage! Everyone took cover, while Uncle Bill laughed his butt off!
Thank you Uncle Bill for making the 4th of July my favorite holiday! The Grundy Family missed you dearly! xoxo
Two BFF's
In this picture you see two longtime best friends/brothers. They shared many memories and pulling pranks on one another for their own amuzement. One of Uncle Bill's favorite stories is when he "got one over on Grundy!" That was his story of when they both were babysitting sick kids. They ran out of beer, Uncle Bill insisted he be the one to go more. When he showed HOURS later he "got one over on Grundy" lol
