William (Bill) W. Wagner, age 62 of Massillon passed away Thursday, March 19, 2020 and will be dearly missed by all who knew him. He was born July 15, 1957 to Layman and Vera (Stull) Wagner in Canton, Ohio. He was a graduate of Perry High School and worked locally in the steel industry for The Timken Company for nearly 30 years. He loved nature, being in it and with it, and was an avid hunter and fisherman. He was kind, honest beyond words, loving, and always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. He was loved deeply by Bonnie and Kristina and they will hold him in their hearts eternally. Above all else, Bill loved being with his family and friends, especially his grandchildren.
Bill is survived by his loving spouse Bonnie Heil, daughters Kristina (Matt) Belliveau and Misty (Chad) Combs, brothers and sisters Ray (Geri) Wagner, Sharon (Greg) Laney, Debbie (Don) Ansell, Larry (Joyce) Wager, Shawn (Sabine) Siber, and Layman Wager, and his grandchildren Jordan, Earnest, and Henri. He will also be forever remembered by his numerous nieces, nephews, extended family, and dear friends.
Bill is preceded in death by his parents, Layman and Vera (Stull) Wagner and his sister Betty Mallett.
