William Messenger Obituary
With heavy hearts, we announce the death of William Messenger (Rockford, Illinois), who passed away on October 15, 2023 at the age of 91. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of William Messenger to pay them a last tribute.
He was loved and cherished by many people including: his parents, Percy Messenger and Christine Messenger; and his siblings, Ron Messenger, Joan Jarvis, Maureen Painting and Michael Messenger.
After Geri's passing in April 2020 at the start of the COVID pandemic, that dear and treasured extended family sustained Bill during some of the loneliest and saddest times of his life.
With Geri's Parkinson's diagnosis in 1999, Bill began what would become his life's work – creating a safe and stable environment for Geri while the ravages of the disease took hold.
