Died August 29, 2008, at the age of 68, after a long battle with cancer. He is survived by Bobbie, his proud wife of 48 years (in sickness and in health, until death do we part). He was "Daddy" to his four much loved daughters Ann Lange Bertz (Robert), Nancy Lange Egelston (Seth), Laura Lange Lehmann (Michael) and Catherine Lange Tooley (Christopher). He was greatly respected by them all. Bill was proud "Papa" to thirteen very special grandchildren, Ryan, Jacob, Maleah, Sam, Sean, Evan, Benjamin, Jasmine, Tiara, Jordan, Max and Randy. He was preceded in death by grandbaby Megan. Bill was born and raised in Louisburg, WI, the son of the late Will and Clara Lange. He was raised in a closely knit and loving family of thirteen brothers and sisters. Bill was born on December 31, 1939. He graduated from Loras Academy in Dubuque, IA in 1956. He served in the US Army from 1957-1959 and was stationed in Germany. He married Roberta Wetter on November 5, 1960. He was CEO of Guardian Credit Union for 37 years.
