William Bloom Obituary

Hard to believe it has been so long. I look fondly on those years at NAC working with Bill and all those great people. My father Bernie helped teach Bill and he was at our house quite often. I miss those days and the way the world was.

Alice,

My heart is with you.

We are saddened by the news of Bill passing away. I had the privilege of working for Bill at Heller in the 80's. He was my boss, my friend, and mentor. While we lost touch after he left the company he remained in my heart and mind.



Our sincere sympathy to the family.

We became friends thru the girls ballet class a lifetime ago. Dana and Amy were so cute together. I knew of Bill's struggles and how wonderfully you all bonded together as a family. He had a beautiful support system. I am so sorry to all of you for your loss...but you do have lots of memories to always treasure...Hopefully Bill is in a better place. Fondly, Adriane Kay Bernstein

Jonathon:



I am very sorry to hear about the loss of your father. My condolences to you and your family.

Hello Jonathan:



I worked with Bill at Congress about 10 years ago. I always found him to be a warm yet firm professional. Our thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time. Francisco

I have known Bill for over 10 years as a business associate and have considered him a friend. I pray that the family can know God's peace during there time of loss. I am thankful that Bill and his family during the time he was disabled by ALS allowed themselves to become associated with efforts to raise money to defeat the terrible desease in the future. You have my deepest sympathy.

Bill Bloom has, in the Biblical phrase, "been gathered unto his fathers." May he, to use another Biblical phrase, "rest in the bosom of Abraham," and may all his family be comforted by G-d, blessed be He.

To the Bloom Family,

Shawn and I send our deepest sympathies to you at your time of loss. I had the good fortune to have Bill as my boss for several years at Heller. He was a great person and a good friend. He was a loyal, thoughtful and giving person. He will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you in your time of need.

I did not know your father personally, but everyone spoke so highly of him. My toughts and prayers go out to you and your family at this difficult time.

I am so sorry to learn of Bill's passing. Les and I will always fondly remember our accidental meeting at the movies and the dinner we shared after talking about old times. You and your family will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Shelly and family,

My family and I were so sad to hear of Bill's passing. We all got to know Bill well in his days at NAC. My father was one of his first teachers at NAC and felt of Bill as another son.

Our deepest sympathy and love for you and your family. You are in our thoughts and Bill will always be in our hearts.

My sincerest condolences to Jonathan and the entire Bloom family, friends and relatives. So sorry to hear of Bill's passing.

To Bill Bloom's Family:



I was saddened to hear of Bill's death and wish to express my deepest sympathy.

My condolences for your loss. My heart is with you and your family during this difficult time. Hopefully someone will "Beat This For Bill" soon so no one else will have to suffer from this horrible disease.

My sympathy to the Bloom family. I met Bill 33 years ago when I started working in Chicago at Lake Shore National Bank. He will certainly be remembered as one of the most competent and professional leaders in the finance industry.

Dear Jonathan:



My condolences to you and your family over the tragic passing of your father. As we talked, your father fought a brave and inspiring battle. I hope you take comfort in all of the wonderful memories that you and your family have of your dad.



Fondly,



Scott Wales (& Family)
