William James Slater Obituary

William “Bill” James Slater Jr., 87, on March 11, 2024, of Kenosha, WI, peacefully left this world to enter into his forever home in the presence of Jesus.


Bill was born on March 29, 1936, to the late William James Slater Sr. and the late Olive (Treichel) Slater. He married Rachel (Prater) Slater on April 15, 2007, and they remained happily married until her death in 2022.


Bill had a very strong faith and trusted Christ with everything, and in the last 20 plus years lived in such a way he touched the hearts of many. Bill was a long-time member of Holy Spirit Community Church and as a treasurer was hugely responsible for the church purchasing a building.


Bill is survived by his daughter Janalyn (Brian) Slater-Heckman, sons William James Slater III, Craig (Amy) Slater and Rodney Grimaldi; grandchildren Cody Slater and Bailey Lundy.


On Saturday, March 16, 2024, visitation will be held at Holy Spirit Community Church, 5900 11th Ave, Kenosha, WI, from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM, with services to follow at 1:00 PM, and Military Honors to immediately follow services. Bill's services will be live streamed on the Holy Spirit Community Church's YouTube Channel.


Interment will take place on Tuesday, March 19, 2024, at 10:00 AM at the Southern Wisconsin Veterans Memorial Cemetery, 21731 Spring St, Union Grove, WI.
