William's obituary

It is with profound sorrow that we announce the passing of William Marholtz III, who left us on March 10, 2025. Born on August 20, 1958, William was both a loving fatheras well as a brother. Brother in blood as well as a member of the Local Carpenters Union.

THE CARPENTER LIVES ON...

Stepping into his workshop to start the day,

Different pieces of wood laid in array,

The scent of cedar filling the air,

A piece of furniture he works to prepare,

Handcrafted with love and the finest precision,

A work came to life with what he could envision,

Measuring the wood for the perfect size,

Tape measure at hand from his supplies,

Reaching for a saw lying on a shelf,

He whistles a familiar tune to himself,

Cutting the wood with the utmost care,

A type of craftsmanship no other can compare,

Skilled at working with his hands,

He strives to use them for all of life’s demands,

Hands that could craft his heart’s desires,

Creating a lifetime of work to be forever admired,

The ability to turn something simple into grand,

The only tools he needed were his left and right hand,

Each piece of work embodies his spirit and love,

A talent he was blessed with from the Lord above,

The carpenter lives on through his creations,

His heart the framework to all his foundations
