William Leonard Magray, 72, Suamico, WI earned his own "Goldwings" on October 27, 2020. Although Bill prided himself in going like the energizer bunny, in perfect physical condition, Covid-19 struck him and just like the lottery, he was unable to win.

He was born on June 13, 1948 in Iron Mountain, MI to Robert and Betty Magray. He was a 1967 graduate of Forest Park High School in Crystal Falls, MI. He proudly served as a medic in the U.S. Army in Vietnam during 1969-1970. On January 1, 1972 he married his childhood sweetheart Cynthia Simondsen Magray. Together they enjoyed over 48 years. He was most proud when he became a father and later in life as a grandfather.

Bill worked very hard his entire life, including many years at Peot Construction and later retired from the WI Dept. of Transportation. Many knew him as "Suamico Junkpicker." He enjoyed making firewood and proudly hauled it with his "3/4 Ton Goldwing Trike!" Some of his other passions included traveling, anything with his grandsons, old country karaoke at Jill's on Bodart and Mt. Dew slushees.

He is survived by his wife, Cindy; daughter Tami (Craig) Balfanz and their sons, Sawyer and Dawson of Suamico, WI; daughter Teri (Jeff Haskins) and their sons, Pierce and Birk of Oconto Falls, WI. Brothers Robert (Patricia) Magray, Raymond Magray, and sister Betty (Terry) Moriarty. Cindy's siblings, Lori (Jim) Miller, Sally (Brad) Mitchell, Bill (Lisa) Simondsen, and Dan (Sally) Simondsen as well as many aunts, cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends who also held a special place in his heart.

He was preceded in death by his father, Robert and step-mother, Dorothy Magray; his mother, Betty and step-father William Schintgen; Cindy's parents, Vern and JoAnne Simondsen; along with his brother; Vernon Magray.
