Brunswick- William T. Konzal passed away on Monday, September 30, 2024 He lived a good life. Bill always felt that this simple statement summed up his life. He kept a framed John Irving quote on his desk: "Everybody dies. I'm going to die too. So will you. The thing is, to have a life before we die. It can be a real adventure having a life." Bill had an adventure, and in so doing - as a husband, a father, a grandfather, and an educator - touched the lives of many. Bill lived in many places, including New York City, New Hampshire, Vermont, Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Maine. He served in the US Army. He was a teacher in New York City and Winchester, NH; a principal of schools in Monadnock, NH, Charlestown, NH, Colrain, MA, and Standish, ME; and a superintendent of schools in Gardiner, ME, Lisbon, ME, Erie, PA, and Mercersberg, PA. Bill was a consummate and dedicated educator who never lost sight of the true beneficiaries of public education - the students. In retirement, Bill found a community in Brunswick, ME. He lived at the Two Echo co-housing community, served on the board of the Region 10 Technical High School, and was part of the ensemble at the Theater Project. Bill is survived by Jean, his wife of over 60 years and son, Greg. The three of them had lots of adventures ranging from driving across country in a VW Beetle to dinners at too many restaurants to count. Bill had great pride in and love for his son's family - his daughter in law Angela and grandchildren Eliot, Michael, and Noah. We will all remember Bill's kindness, resilience, caring, and, above all, his sense of humor (which could border on the irreverent). A celebration of Bill's life will be scheduled. In lieu of flowers, please consider supporting the Michael J. Fox Parkinson's Foundation. Arrangements and guidance are in the care of Stetson's Funeral Home and Cremation Care, 12 Federal Street, Brunswick, Maine.
