Obituary of Bill Remenda

April 14, 1939 – November 25, 2020 William (Bill) is survived by his wife, Darlene (Reddekopp) Remenda; 3 sons, Doug (Dawn), Don (Jennifer), Drew (Michele), stepson Tyler (Nicole) Nixon, brother Bob (Alicia) Remenda and 11 grandchildren, 2 great grandchildren, mother-in-law Phyllis Reddekopp, brother-in-law Randy (Carol) Reddekopp, and numerous nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents, Dymetro and Patricia (Hladych), sisters Bernice (Wayne) Pizzey, Leona Remenda, brother Lawrence (Audrey), father-in-law Ben Reddekopp, brother-in-law Rick Reddekopp, and sister-in-law Marilyn Reddekopp. Bill had so many friends through hockey, baseball, and work which included his own company Remenda Electric. I can’t begin to name you all, but I would be remiss if I didn’t make special mention of Bill Orban, Ray and Alva Jeffrey! He was a world youth baseball umpire who travelled to places like New York and Australia. He joined the portrait wall in the Baseball Hall of Fame at the field house. His main love was hockey which meant late nights and friendly brewskis! He asked for no tears, but to be remembered with lots of reminiscing and laughter and of course music.
