Bill is survived by his brothers, John G. (Lynn) Boshart Jr. of Louisville, KY, Philip H. Boshart of Canajoharie, James R. Boshart of Fonda, Henry C. Boshart of Fonda, and Robert A. Boshart of Fonda; his sisters, Jean E. (Bob) McGrath of Florida, Peggy B. (Larry) Peck of Florida, and Susan A. Boshart of Fonda. Bill is also survived by aunts and many cousins, nieces, and nephews. Besides his parents, Bill was predeceased by a brother, Richard J. Boshart; and a sister, Ann S. Boshart.

Bill was raised on the family farm in Fonda, N.Y. and attended the Fonda-Fultonville Central School. Bill was a popular student who excelled in academics and sports. Although he was always friendly and modest, he enjoyed challenging his siblings in a variety of competitions. Bill would invariably win and always responded with a smile and twinkle in his eye. He sure enjoyed spending time with family and friends.

Bill suffered a life changing spinal cord injury during his senior year of high school, a setback he endured with courage and grace for the rest of his life. The family is grateful to Lexington Center for their years of loving care.
