Bill James Spicka, 51, of Weston, NE, entered into eternal rest on Thursday, February 10, 2022 in rural Wahoo, NE.  He was born March 6, 1970 in David City, NE to Ron and Gladys (Stara) Spicka.  Bill graduated from Bishop Neumann High School in 1988.  He attended Southeast Community College in Milford, NE and received a degree in Diesel Mechanics.  Following school, in addition to farming, Bill went to work for John Deere- first in Wahoo and then in David City.  Since 2006, Bill has worked for the Saunders County Highway Department as a shop mechanic alongside his brother.

Bill was a lifelong farmer who could fix anything. If he wouldn’t fix it, it wasn’t worth fixing.  He loved spending time with his family and fishing with his dad.  Bill enjoyed tractor pulls, rodeos, NASCAR and working on the farm.  He was always willing to help family and friends with any project, even after he was sick.  Bill served as President of the Weston Credit Union.  He was a member of St. John Nepomucene Catholic Church in Weston, NE.
