Bill Ebert, 76, of Goodman, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, July 7, 2020, at his home surrounded by his family. He was born in Goodman on June 12, 1944, the son of the late Earl and Mary (Wood) Ebert. Bill was united in marriage to Theresa Mazur in Armstrong Creek on October 7, 1995.

After graduating from Goodman High School in 1962 Bill attended Dunwoody College of Technology in Minneapolis where he studied auto mechanics. After college he worked as an auto mechanic and then served in the United States Army with the 5th Surgical Hospital as a mechanic while stationed in Germany.

During that time he was also an entrepreneur and owned his own business, Village Grinding, sharpening dies, knives and blades.
