BILL PARKINSON • Horizon Home Care & Hospice Inc.
After retiring from teaching English at Homestead High School, Bill Parkinson could have spent his retirement surrounded by books and may have been quite content. He could have caught up on some reading he’d been long postponing.
However, Parkinson’s wife insisted there was work to be done and people he could help. On her recommendation, Parkinson reluctantly went to Community Memorial Hospital in Menomonee Falls to see what he could do.
