life nearly up to the last day. Born in Phil-

he enlisted in the Army after Pearl Harbor,
with whom he saw service in the Quarter-
master Corps in Natal, Brazil. World War II
After the war Bill received his degree in
Temple and began a lifelong career in traffic
management, now known as “logistics,” em-
ployed by Cuneo Press, United News, and in
the most fulfilling part of his career, Clark
Worldwide Transportation. In that last posi-
tion, he and his wife of 68 years, Selma (Du-
bin) Wilder traveled the world experiencing
the best it had to offer. Bill’s life revolved
around Selma— they both cared deeply for
one another and are a model for a great mar-
riage. Bill is survived by his wife, Selma, their
sons, and their spouses, Jeffrey and DeAunn
Wilder and Stuart Wilder and Beth Snyder,
and two grandchildren, Jacob and Süki. In
his last years, Bill enjoyed nothing so much
as dining out—always with cocktails— with
friends and family. He had a terrific sense of
humor and left friends around the world.
