William Louis Salters of Allegan, Michigan passed away peacefully on Wednesday September 23rd, 2020 in the Wings of Hope Hospice Home.
William was born September 24th, 1951 to Arnold Everett Salters and Harriett Geraldine Newby in Detroit Michigan, he was their only son. He was a fabricator by trade and self employed for 15 years while living in San Diego, California. He then moved back to Michigan in the summer of 1990 and worked in the fabrication Industry. He was a loving husband of 45 years to his wife, and a father and papa to many. His "greatest achievements were his grandchildren," he would always say. He talked to everyone in our community and took pictures with any random person who was willing and that's how he stored his memory. He did odd jobs for people and the community, He was a gold buying sign holder, the delivery guy of trinkets and gadgets, the karaoke singer of the night, the root beer guy at the bar and the designated driver if you needed a ride. He would give you the shirt off his back kind of man.
William was preceded in death by Arnold Everett Salters and Harriett Geraldine Newby.
He is survived by his wife Sharon Salters, and their one son William Salters of Allegan, and daughter in-law Brandy Salters of Allegan. He has four grandchildren Zachary Salters, Bella Salters, Gabriel Chapuran and Jackson Salters all of Allegan.
There will be a celebration of life at a later date due to restrictions and per William's wishes we want the community to be able to reflect over his life and celebrate. Memorials may be made to the The Wings Home of Allegan, Mi and or the Go Fund me account that has been set up to help cover the cost of cremation and his celebration of life.
