Joseph William “Bill” Erickson, 87, passed to his eternal peace on March 3, 2021 at Trinity Regional Rehab Center, Trinity, Florida.

Bill was born December 31, 1933, son of Joseph and Esther (Nee: Morris) Erickson, and raised in Aitkin Minnesota. Bill graduated from Aitkin High School.

Bill moved to Minneapolis, MN soon after graduating from school, and worked at the University of Minnesota Hospitals. A few years later, Bill moved to Racine, WI, where he found employment with and eventually retired from J.I Case. Upon retirement, Bill moved to New Port Richie, Florida.

Bill loved to travel; he took many cruises. Bill also loved to fish and was an enthusiastic participant in dance lessons; he entered and won numerous dance contests. Bill was a devoted Episcopalian; a long-time member of St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in Racine where he joyously participated in the church choir.

Bill is survived by his sisters, Madelyn Pollock (nee Erickson) of Racine, and Lorraine Chimzar (nee Erickson) of Placentia, CA, many nieces, Susan M. (Doug) Thornberg of Manchester, N.H., Joan M. (Jeff) Weber, of LaVerne, CA, Debbie L. (Bill) Thorney of Aurora, CO, and Kathy (Rick) Herbert of The Villages, Florida, and two nephews Steven R. (Gail) Pollock, of Mequon, WI, and Thomas E. (Susan) Pollock of Racine; and many, many grand and great-grand nieces and nephews.

The family would like to thank the healthcare team employed with the Trinity Regional Rehab facility and clinic for their care for “Uncle Bill”.
