William J. Elms, Iii

Mr. William J. Elms, III, of Weymouth, passed away on January 15, 2021. 

Bill loved collecting old bus memorabilia, especially from Eastern Mass Bus Lines, which is where his father worked. Bill also loved his dogs, which were all dobermans, that him and his wife Maureen had throughout the years. But Bill’s favorite times were spent with his family, dining out at nice restaurants or preparing meals for his family at home. Those times were always the most special to him and were always spent with so much laughter.

Beloved husband of Maureen F. (Harkins). Loving father of Colleen M. Elms and her fiance, Bobby Craig of Brockton, and William Elms of Seattle, WA. Brother of Robert Elms and his wife, Elaine, of Weymouth. Grandfather of Tyler Craig.
