William Paul Benz, 75

William Paul Benz, 75, passed away on April 15, 2021, due to complications of (B) cell lymphoma, in Kalispell.

William was born on Jan. 5, 1946, to Joseph and Elsie (Froelich) Benz, in Cincinnati, Ohio.

William was a profound, supremely caring Renaissance man who felt every person whom he had come into contact with was important. His occupations included cartography, woodworking, computers and painting. He had a youthful humor that he had never lost.

William was preceded in death by both parents and his siblings.

William is survived by his wife, Maria Todisco; and his son, Silas Benz of Portland.
