July 16, 1929 ~ March 1, 2019
“A measure of a man is in the lives he has touched.”
William “Bill” Schoenhals, 89, was received into the loving arms of his Lord and Savior, March 1, 2019.
Bill was born July 16, 1929, in Follett, Texas, to George and Mollie Schoenhals. He was the sixth born in a loving family of eight children and was raised on the family…
I have many wonderful memories of Bill, when he and Phylllis came to visit his daughter, Liria, in Amarillo, when I rented a room from her back in the mid 80’s. In fact, he and Phyllis and Liria talked me into to moving to Amarillo, and I will be forever grateful, as that is where I met my husband, Tim.
Liria & I have been best friends since we were 5 years old. So growing up I spent quite a bit of time with Bill & Phyllis & have many memories…How pleased he was I liked the milk cows calf…Bill handing me a quarter to put in the collection plate at church, Liria & I sleeping on the hay stack in the summer. Priceless memories..Go rest high on that mountain, Bill. You have finished the course! Well done!
