It is with a heavy heart that we share that Bill Bartlebaugh, a loving father, grandfather, and friend has passed away. His unexpected departure has left a hole in our hearts.

Pop Pop had an extraordinary love for his family, especially for our daughters, Isabella and Madeline. From the moment they were born, he showered them with love. He had a special bond with them—one that was built on laughter, adventure, and a genuine joy in being their "Pop Pop." He always put his family first, often dropping everything to spend time with them. He had the biggest heart even enough to spread joy with my daughter’s cousins, treating them like his own grandchildren.

As we navigate this difficult time, we’re reaching out to our friends and family. Funeral expenses and arrangements have placed an unexpected burden on us, and we’re asking for any help you can provide to lay Pop Pop to rest. No contribution is too small, and any donations will be deeply appreciated. It will also aid in finding him and GiGi a resting place together.
