William "Will" Monroe passed away peacefully at age 67 on Sept. 19, 2022. Will was born on May 11, 1955, in Council Bluffs, Iowa, to Stephen and Lola Monroe but grew up in Sioux City, Iowa.

Will served six years in the U.S. Navy but continued working on Naval ships for many years, having a very successful career doing what he loved. His passion for motorcycles extended his entire life; anybody that knew him, understood his love for Harley-Davidson's and exploring the open road. Will was a beloved son, brother, uncle and friend. Will loved exploring on his bike, which is how he discovered the town of Wallace, Idaho, where he eventually retired and bought his last home.

There will be a military service with honors at 1 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 13, 2022, at Washington State Veterans Cemetery, 21702 W. Espanola Road, Medical Lake, Wash.
