William P. Spedoske

Portland-William "Bill" Paul Spedoske, 70 of Portland, died Friday evening 
December 18, 2020 at peace in his home surrounded by his wife and children. He 
was born in  Big Rapids, Michigan, the son of Dominic and Carolyn Spedoske both 
who preceded him in death.

The Spedoske family moved toPortland in 1966 when Bill was in high school. Bill 
and his brothers brought their good looks and the "new style" of Barracuda 
(Pollack) Jackets and wing tip shoes to town. They were the envy of the boys in 
school.

Bill served his country and was a Vietnam Veteran serving his tour of duty from 
1970-1972.

He was a lifetime fan of the Detroit Lions and a daily donator to the Michigan 
Education Fund. He also had a love for music, especially old country. He was a 
frequent karaoke singer at the "old" Wagon Wheel and a local supporter of small-
town Hot Shots.

Bill loved spending time with his family and laughing with his grandchildren. 
Bill's parents were known for their great cooking skills and they passed this 
talent onto him. He was an amazing cook with specialties in making "hot 
Tamales", beef and homemake egg noodles, home made noodle salad and Thanksgiving 
meals. He has a sweet tooth and would talk for hours about all his favorite 
treats.

Bill met his wife Sherry in high school. His family recently celebrated the 50th 
Anniversary of Bill and Sherry on August 28, 2020. The celebration included good 
good and ended with the Spedoske men singing.

Bill is leaving behind a legacy. Surviving Bill is the love of his life and wife 
of 50 years, Sherry Lynn Baker. Children, William (Paul) and wife, Christina,  
Troy Allen, daughter Shannon Lee Spedoske and former special son-in-law, Chris

Debra; grandchildren; Cody, Cameron and wife, Danna, Taylor, Chase, Torie, 
Christopher and Keegan and his great-grandchildren, Paisley, Eli and Lewlynn.

He will be missed by all his family and friends he is leaving behind while he 
moves on to be reunited with his parents. Preceding him in death were her 
parents, Dominic and Carolyn Spedoske; brother, Michael Spedoske; sisters, 
Carol, Kathleen and Patty Kay; brothers-in-law, Gerald Hoppes, Dave Smith and 
Gary Kiter; father-in-law, John Baker; brother-in-law, David Charles (Charlie)
