William J Frederick, Sr. was born December 31, 1941 to Ralph and Doris (Olson) Frederick in Hartville, Wyoming. Bill worked over 40 years as a heavy equipment operator building roads and highways, until his retirement. He always said he liked going to work each day because he enjoyed what he did.

Bill met Annette Chenaille on Sept 10, 1962. Two weeks later, on their second date, Bill asked Annette to marry him and she said yes. They were married on April 15, 1963 at St Francis Borgia Catholic Church in Blair, NE. They were married for 54 years. Their first home was the Thone School in Herman, where he remodeled and added an addition to it.

To this union they were blessed with four children. His greatest joy was watching his children grow and teaching them many skills they would use throughout their lives. Bill and Annette enjoyed camping and traveling across the United States. Branson Missouri and the mountains were favorites, with family trips to Branson being the most cherished of all. His greatest joys were his children, 18 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren.

Bill enjoyed watching the Husker games and collecting Husker memorabilia. He enjoyed deer hunting for 42 years. He had his two largest bucks mounted, which sparked many years of memorable conversations. A highlight was hunting with his children and grandchildren.

Even though you didn't always see it on the outside, Bill was a very loving and tenderhearted person. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather, brother, uncle and friend.

He is survived by his wife, Annette and children William Frederick Jr (Penny), Theresa (Scott) McMains, Amy (Chris) Mommsen, brother Ralph E Frederick (Debbie), sisters Kathy (Nick) Fiore, Pat (Tom) Terlitsky, sister-in-laws Carol Frederick, Agnes (Larry) Willis,Toni (Victor) McIntosh, grandkids, great grandkids and numerous nieces and nephews.
