William (Bill) Owen Foss, 67, passed away on February 22, 2022, at Accura Health Care in Pleasantville, Iowa. Bill Foss was born in Belmond, Iowa, on May 3, 1954, to Norman and Helen Foss and grew up in Latimer, Iowa, where he graduated from CAL Community High School.

He was a member of Westmar's choir which toured Europe. Bill held a variety of positions in Iowa, Denver, Colorado and Minneapolis, Minnesota. He was a member of the United Methodist Church.
Bill will be fondly remembered and appreciated by his family for the loving care he selflessly provided their aging parents. Bill had a kind heart and was always compassionate toward others. He had a wonderful sense of humor and enjoyed playing pranks on his older brothers. His family teased him about his "gift of gab."
