Mr. Lundquist left an indelible mark. I will always remember him as the tallest man in the congregation. Quiet, reserved, but never without a smile. What a beautiful tribute you provided for us. Just lovely. Sandy, Wendy, Brad, Jill, and the rest of the family: our deepest condolences. The Healey's - Marjorie, Jane, Carol, John and Jeanne
They certainly broke "the mold" after creating Bill! What a character! I enjoyed working with him as he tweaked, cursed and then restarted his precious iPad!! I am sorry for his loss and look forward to teaching Sandy how to play mahjong!! He surely loved his family!!
Bill was a wonderful man of faith. He always had the most intriguing questions at our seniors Bible study, and his questions led us to think more deeply about God's Word as we applied it to our lives. Bill also had a great sense of wit and would sprinkle our discussion with a joke or funny remark, shared with a smile on his face and a sparkle in his eye. I know you will miss Bill deeply and you are grieving greatly from his sudden departure. I am praying to the Lord to give you comfort and to strengthen your faith as you await the day you will see Bill again in heaven.

To the family of Bill Lundquist: I never met Bill, but am good friends with his sister-in-law Judith Hartman-Lehmann. She had nothing but good things to say about him & his family. Prayers that you all have God’s Peace as you rejoice for his presence before Jesus & mourn his physical absence from your lives.
To the family of Bill Lundquist
I was a design technician in Bill's squad and always appreciated the challenges and opportunities he gave me when I worked for him. He was a real “leader” and I was proud of the amount of work that was generated in his unit. I especially remember him challenging me at times and making me think. I might ask him for a solution to a problem and he might say “ A chain is only as strong as its weakest link” and let me figure out the solution. Bill designed some neat projects across Iowa and I was blessed to transfer some of his designs to final construction plans using vellum, ink and drafting instruments, way back in the day before computers, and yes, I was also one of the slide rule users. I remember the day when Bill retired and I was thinking he was probably one of the best Engineers I worked with and who do I go to now when I need an answer to a question.
Sandy, I understand your loss as I lost my Darlyne just a year ago to cancer. We were blessed with 53 years together so I can relate to some of the emotions you are probably going through right now. I pray for peace for you, and all your family members.
