William “Bill” Edward Caldwell Jr. died peacefully at home in Yarmouth, Maine on Wednesday March 2, 2022, his 100th birthday. Alice, his loving wife of 77 years, was by his side.
He will be remembered for his passions: blue water cruising, classic cars, and above all, family.
Bill was born on March 2, 1922, in Inwood, N.Y., the son of William Edward Caldwell Sr. and Hortense Storer Caldwell and brother of Lee Baldwin Caldwell Churchill. Bill is survived by Alice and their three daughters, Anne (Peter), Jeanne, and Kim (John); and eight grandchildren, Lee, Bill, Elizabeth, David (Pamela), Emily, Deirdre, and Julia. Bill was predeceased by his granddaughter, Alice; and sister, Lee. Serendipitously, Bill and Alice’s first great-grandchild, Casper Liam, was born on Bill’s 100th birthday!
