William Melvin Atzen

Words cannot express how sorry we are to hear of your loss. Our deepest sympathy & thoughts are with you & your family. Love, Jeff & Brenda Bloom

My sincere condolence to the Atzen family for your loss. I had the pleasure to work closely with Bill in our respective positions within the UW System. I always found him to be collegial, friendly, funny and very competent. 74 is just too soon! I was also delighted to read that he was a dog lover, as am I, and will make a donation to Dane County Humane Society in his honor and name. Gary Prisbe

So sorry to hear about Bill, and my sincere condolences to his family. Bill was one of my first co-workers at the UW when I started in 1967--always helpful, friendly with a great sense of humor. He will be missed by a lot of people. George Ketterer, Controller Emeritus, UW System.

You're in our thoughts in prayers. Love Jeff & Anita Zuber and family.

So sorry to hear of Bill's passing, way too young. Although I didn't work with Bill directly I heard many times from those that did that he was great to work with and highly respected. I worked with Shelley for many years and also got to know Sherry. My heart goes out to them in their lost. I met Janice many years ago and in Bill she found the love of her life. To all my thought and prays are with you. I know Bill let a mark on all he touched. Chuck McConnell, Assistant Vice President Emeritus, UW System
