Sadly, a longtime member of ours, Bill Grizzle, has passed
A longtime member of ours, Bill Grizzle, has passed. Bill joined the Meadowlark Men’s Club in 1975 and served the club in many positions on the Board of Directors, including the Handicap Committee and assisted Eno Angulo with the scoring for Tournaments. Bill was appointed to this position by Ron Bergland, a multiple past President and current scorer of the weekday games at the Lark.
Eno and Bill had a very close relationship, as well as many other members who loved “Griz”, as he was affectionally known.
Bill retired and moved to Sutan Valley, Arizonia in early 2012. Bill suffered a stroke a few years after his move which affected his eye sight rendering him unable to continue to play golf with his new buddies at the local course.
My best memories of Bill was being able to play golf with him in our regular Saturday group. Bill was a very competitive golfer, but most of all he was a great guy to play with because he had the best dry sense of humor, and loved to have a little 2-2-2 action.
Bill was truly respected by his peers and a true Meadowlarker. Bill was a good friend to “almost” ha everyone who knew him. Bill was also a very generous man who helped out many other members that were in need. Bill also loved to fish, hunt and travel, and was a regular tournament player who loved to travel to the out-of-towners.
Bill was fortunate enough to have passed while at his home surrounded by family.
Bill will be truly missed!
