William J. Schuler of Willowbrook passed away Nov. 21, 2021, with his family by his side.
Bill was a devoted father, never giving up no matter how many phone calls he had to make or miles he had to travel. Generous in hard times, he always had a comforting hand and sympathetic ear, backed by a godly conviction to stand for what was right. He was the eldest of eight children and a brother to those who never had one. Bill was a longtime member of St. Isaac Jogues Church. He will be dearly missed while his memory fills the hearts of friends and family.
He is survived by his son, James; his siblings, Peggy (George) Summins, Jeannie Papacek and Cathie Brechtel; and many nieces and nephews.
Bill was preceded in death by his siblings, Barb (Pat) Murray, Rev. Robert Schuler, Betty (Paul) Micek and Mary Jo Schuler.

Interment is at Assumption Catholic Cemetery in Wheaton.
