William (Bill) Charles Welsh
He married Susan Allds on June 4, 1960 in Whittier, Calif. They just celebrated their 60th anniversary. The couple were blessed with four children: Mark, Christine, John, and Douglass. Upon returning to Wausau he worked at Marathon Electric and then at Greenheck Fan Corp. where he retired after 20 years.

He was preceded in death by his parents, son Mark, and numerous brothers-in-law and a sister-in-law.
He enjoyed living in the Northwoods, deer hunting with his sons and grandson, riding his UTV, and he especially enjoyed spending time with his family. William was a member of the American Legion, Post 318 in Lake Tomahawk. He was named the Legionnaire of the year in 2015. He was also an active member in various ATV clubs throughout Wisconsin. He always looked forward to the fall ride. Sept. 12, 2016, William and his daughter Chris participated in the Never Forgotten Honor Flight. He was honored to have had the opportunity to go to Washington DC to visit the memorials.
There will be no services or visitation at this time. There will be a service planned in the fall when the Northwood’s National Cemetery opens.
A special appreciation goes to the Aspirus Hospice care unit in both the Northwood’s and in Mosinee for their compassionate care for William.
