My beloved husband of nearly 30 years, Bill Tomisser, passed away peacefully surrounded by family on Jan. 21, 2025 at the VA Hospital. He was not only a great father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend. He was a man gifted with many talents: a self-taught keyboard player, jewelry designer, inspirational speaker, and a gourmet cook to name a few - we were all well fed at all times.

His absolute favorite instrument was the Hammond B3 Organ powered by his favorite speaker - the Leslie, which he played exceptionally well. If you've ever heard him hammer on the keys, you know what I mean. Music was a central theme at our house. In 2010, we formed a family band and played many gigs together for over 6 years - memories that would last a lifetime!

He loved science and could talk about space for hours! Bill loved fishing, camping and rafting and spent many hours on the water, including conquering many class IV white water rapids. As far as sports, he was totally devoted to the Seattle Seahawks, being a season ticket holder for 48 years, since the beginning of the franchise! Every year he traveled to Seattle to visit family and watch the games, sometimes bringing his kids along, which was always a treat. Sunday was game day at the house and everyone in the family was well indoctrinated to love the Seahawks. He also loved to travel and to BBQ on a sunny day. Spending time with family was important to him and we always ate supper together, played many card games (Pinnacle!), boardgames (Balderdash!), and watched movies.

He lived a full life and we're sad to see him go, but we know his soul is eternal and is here with us, along for this journey we call life.

If you knew him, thank you for being a part of his life!

We would love a small donation from our friends and family to help in covering the cost of funeral services and the celebration of life.
