October 13, 1962 — April 16, 2009
William Edward "Bill" Crookshank, age 46 of Randolph, died on Thursday, April 16, 2009 as a result of a vehicular accident in Iowa.
Bill was born on October 13, 1962 in West Covina, California, the son of Robert and Sally (Prew) Crookshank. He graduated from Randolph High School in 1981, and went on to Dakota County Technical College for tool and die. He worked in tool and die making for a short time, and then started driving truck. He drove for Wausau in Cannon Falls, and was currently trucking for G. Dubbels Trucking in Randolph.
Bill was an active member of St. Mark’s Lutheran Church in Randolph, where he had served as trustee. He was a member of the Hampton Sportsman's Club, and had also been a member of the Randolph/Hampton Volunteer Fire Department for 10 years. Bill enjoyed drag racing and NASCAR, riding motorcycle, and driving truck, where he could see the country. He enjoyed passing time by sitting down and having conversations with those he would see! He will be remembered most for his love of family, and especially enjoyed time with his nieces and nephews.
