Bill Hurd, age 63,
collapsed Saturday,
August 13, doing one of
his favorite activities,
bicycling hills. He was
our beloved brother, dear
husband, loving father,
joyful uncle, and steadfast
friend.
Born on November 1st, 1958, in Perry, IA, to Kate
and Gene Hurd, he was the seventh of nine children.
He attended Iowa State University where he met his
wife, Sheila. They were happily married for forty years.
After attending Colorado University Law school, they
moved to Grand Junction where he practiced law for
five years and they had twin sons, Alex and Michael.
He then followed his first calling and went to Colorado
State University to obtain his MSU. He helped many
people through his twenty-five-year career in various
capacities, retiring from Community Hospital in 2019.
He and his family enjoyed many trips through the
years visiting his treasured family and friends, many
times with their bikes on the back of the car. He was
always ready for an adventure and loved exploring new
places, playing games, bicycling, and disc golf. He will
be remembered for his ever-present smile, his deep
compassion for everyone, and his gentle nature.
He leaves behind his wife and sons; siblings, Joe (Judy),
Patty (Tim), Rob (Henry), Dick, Ed (Quonnella), Kath
(Steve), Beth (Bill); sister-in-law, Julie; many nieces and
nephews and countless friends. He is preceded in death
by his brother, Steve.
