We created a GatheringUs memorial to celebrate the life of William Patrick Hilmar. Collecting your stories and memories here will offer us great comfort. As we plan gatherings, we will post invites. Remember to RSVP to help us plan. Thank you for contributing to this lasting memorial.
OBITUARY
Will had a kind spirit and a gentle soul. He was ever mindful of not hurting anyone and therefore would tend to keep to himself. During the past couple of years Will's personality really shined through. He had the ability to make me and everyone around him feel special. He was so spontaneous and could make me laugh when I least expected it. But most of all he was so loving, caring and kind.

During the past couple of years Will's personality really shined through. He had the ability to make me and everyone around him feel special. He was so spontaneous and could make me laugh when I least expected it. But most of all he was so loving, caring and kind. Will captured my heart with his gentlemanly ways. He was an old soul with such a big heart! Will was and will forever be my ❤️!! I Love You Will!! I loved you yesterday, I love you today, I’ll love you all of my tomorrows. As we would say to one another "just a little bit".
You leave behind your partner, your friends and your extended family. Know that you will forever be missed!!
Four long years since you’ve been gone and for me it still feels like it was yesterday. I loved you then, I love you today and I’ll love you all of my tomorrows. You will always be my ❤️
It’s so sad to have a lingering pain, a pain that could have been avoided with proper communication.

If you love someone, if you value them and are in a committed relationship, always address issues when they arise. Do not let them fester to the point that it escalates and you want to walk away! Some relationships are worth saving, simply by
letting your partner know, “I see this and it bothers me”.
Don’t tip toe around the issue, get right to the point.
The outcome could have been so different. 😢
I miss you always❤️ less
It’s funny, people assume you need to be legally married to be husband and wife. There are other things that define a marriage; love, commitment, trust, faith, companionship, laughter and communication, to name a few.

There are other things that define a marriage; love, commitment, trust, faith, companionship, laughter and communication, to name a few. When one is broken, all others can fail. In the heat of the moment, you forget about all the others. If you find yourself in that situation, take a step back, breathe and don’t speak. Sleep on your hurt, process and revisit the situation. Things might work out differently and you won’t be here, at this point in your life, missing one big part of you . less
