In Memory of Bill Pritchard: Support for Kaylynn

Hi, my name is Erika Cocco nee Pritchard, and I have created this account in support of my niece Kaylynn Pritchard after the unexpected and devastating loss of my brother, my mom’s son, and her father.

It has been hard to put into words this sudden void that has been created by the loss of her incredibly loved father, William J. Pritchard, on Saturday, May 17, 2025. The passing of a father has been heartbreaking for her as well as other remaining members of the family. The amazing way he exuded himself has been infectious to so many, and his memory will never be forgotten. I know he will be watching over his children, players, family, work crews, and friends from heaven. As his soul rests now, Bill leaves some big shoes to be filled.

Bill’s legacy was his unwavering love for his kids, his intentions for them to have a stable future, and his work ethic and persistence to be actively involved in their lives. His sobriety of 4 years and 2 months was his other priority, which allowed him to really surrender to God and deepen his bond with his daughter Kaylynn, as well as his other 2 children, family, and community. I am requesting funds for Kaylynn so she can be supported as his other children are with the help being requested by their mother’s family. She is currently a college student and relied on Bill’s help and guidance as a father. Kaylynn will use funds to assist with expenses needed for her Med and Grad school programs, medical need and expenses. She is currently attending Cal. State University San Marcos. Whatever prayer or contribution you would like to give is utmost appreciated. I want her to be able to get the assistance needed to grieve, heal, and move forward with this shift in her life.

Rest in forever peace, Bill. You are forever loved and remembered. Thank you for the life force you brought to us all.

Your sister,

Erika Cocco nee Pritchard and family

Celebration of Life will be held on July 19, 2025 @ Cotnerstone Church in L.B. Ca.
