William (Bill) Francis Carroll

William (Bill) Francis Carroll entered joyfully into heaven to greet his Savior Jesus face to face, on February 20, 2019. Bill had bravely battled cancer for 8 years, working and (with a smile) persevering when most would have given up. Bill had an amazingly personal relationship with Jesus and the promise of eternal life.

His only sadness was in leaving behind wife of 45 years, the love of his life, Lucinda and his five wonderful children, their wives and their children. Bill met his wife Lucinda in 1970 at Priest Lake, Idaho, where they both worked the summers. They married in 1974.

Bill throughout his life pursued excellence in all he did. He graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in building construction from University of Washington. He went to work immediately after college for Lydig Construc-tion — later running Pioneer Construc-tion. He and his wife started their own company, Carroll Construction, building many commercial projects in the Pacific Northwest. In 1999, he moved with his family to Lynden, Washington, purchasing a small dairy farm. In 2008 they moved to Wenatchee, Washington, to work for Selland Construction. In 2016, Bill and his wife moved back to their beloved Priest Lake and built a bakery and a home there.

Bill loved to ski, hike, build, ride motorcycles. He loved to include his grandchildren in everything that he did. His children were precious to him — always a blessing he called them. He was proud of each and every one of them and their wonderful families.

He will be missed greatly by the family and friends he leaves behind.
