William Michael Abbott passed away suddenly on January 26th, 2023, at the age of 65.
He was born on April 22nd, 1957 in Garden Grove, CA to William L. Abbott and Theresa
Abbott (nee Hemmersbach).
William loved the outdoors. He was an avid hunter, and would spend many deer
seasons with family at various deer camps throughout the state. He was happiest when
he was outside, enjoying everything that nature had to offer. He loved watching sports,
whether it was the Packers, Brewers, Bucks, or Wisconsin Badgers. He wore many hats
throughout his life, from working a farm, warehouse supervisor for Ortega, building
custom cabinets, and other jobs in between. He found his true passion in his later years,
driving school bus, and working with children.
William is survived by his mother, Theresa; sons Brian and Andrew; grandsons Dausyn
and Ethan; grand-daughters Annabella and Willow; sisters Patricia (Jerry) Matthews,
Coleen (Ed) Dionne, Eleen (Chris) Eversum, Sharon (Bill) Hass; brothers David (Mary
Jane)Abbott, Keith Abbott; brother in-law George Garber; and many nieces and
nephews.
He was preceded in death by his father, William, and his sister, Karen Garber.
A celebration of life will be planned at a later date.
The Buswell Funeral Home of Black River Falls is assisting the family.
