Winter Haven -Bill Wise , age 84, passed away Monday, March 3, 2025, at Winter Haven. Bill came screaming into this world on May 23, 1940 at 8:00 am. He was the baby of the family and was treasured and loved by all of his older siblings. He is with them now, and we have been so blessed to have him in our life for 84-3/4 years. Bill was a whirlwind in this life and will be one in the next. Bill served in the US Army and later became the Owner of GLT Total Office. He enjoyed life and never forgot a detail. Bill loved Frostproof where he grew up and traveled there on every occasion to have a hamburger at P & J’s, tour the city and surrounding areas to relive his experiences in Frostproof. Bill was a super salesman, never met a stranger and could talk a barn door off the hinges. He is survived by his wife Brenda Wise, who has been a part of his life since 1972, sons W. Bruce Wise & B Dean Wise (Natalie) and grandchildren Devin, Lauren, Austin, Brooke. Bill had many treasured times with all the grandchildren as they grew up.
