With deep sadness, we announce the passing of William (Bill) Flesse, who was born on March 15, 1953 and passed away on February 4, 2026 in Columbiana, Ohio.
Bill grew up in Boardman, Ohio and graduated from Boardman High School in 1971, where he played football. He loved playing golf and cheering on the Green Bay Packers. He spent his career in sales with Jones Oxygen Co, Ltd, AGA Gas, and American General Insurance. Bill was an active member of First Covenant Church (Youngstown, OH) where he led Bible Study for adults and the Caring and Sharing Program. Later Bill was a member of Saint Carlo Acutis Parish (Columbiana, OH) where he participated in a program to deliver soup to shut-ins. He was also involved with the Knights of Columbus (Boardman, OH) and Ruritan Club. Bill coached Boardman Little League girls softball with his father for many years and assisted with coaching soccer when his daughters played in the league.
Bill was preceded in death by his parents, Mary Margaret and Charles Kenneth Flesse, and his brother, Charles Kenneth Flesse Jr. He is survived by his sisters, Margaret "Peg" Pauley and Reatha Omodio; his daughters, Heather Brady, Kari Knight, and Breanne Reda; and his grandchildren, Kyrah Knight, Connor Knight, and Trey Brady.
We pray that Bill has found peace in the arms of his Lord.
