William S. Rinker, a devoted husband, loving father, cherished grandfather, and proud, lifelong resident of Moore Township, passed away peacefully on May 5, 2026. He was surrounded by the immense love of his family during his final moments, closing the chapter on a life rich with purpose, faith, and dedication. He was 80 years old.

Bill was the beloved and devoted husband of Brenda Rinker for 47 years. Born May 1, 1946, in Bath, PA, he was the son of the late Lester and Marion Rinker and a proud graduate of Northampton High School, Class of 1964.

Following graduation, Bill proudly served his country in the United States Army, stationed in Germany during the Vietnam War era. He then dedicated many years to Bethlehem Steel and later worked at the Morgan Company, where his strong work ethic was highly valued

A faithful and active member of Salem U.C.C. of Moorestown, faith was a central, guiding principle in Bill's life.

Bill treasured the simple pleasures of life, especially being outdoors. He was rarely still, always busy mowing, meticulously raking, or splitting wood. He also possessed a true passion for hunting. Above all, Bill treasured time spent with his family.

Bill's memory will be forever cherished by his devoted wife, Brenda, and his two daughters: Corri Szoke and her husband Michael, and Brandi Weidner and her husband Adam, all of Moore Township. He was a supportive and fun-loving "Pappy" to five grandchildren: Kadon, Karli, Bryce, Kamden, and Brennan. He is also survived by his brother, Larry Rinker and his wife Gloria, Sister-in-Law and Brother-in-Law, Diana & Dennis Diefenderfer, and nieces and nephews, Mike, Steve, Tracy, and Karen. He was preceded in death by his brother and sister-in-law, Rocke and Rochelle Rinker.

Bill Rinker's commitment, kindness, quiet strength, and family devotion enriched the lives of all who knew him. His memory will remain a beacon of love and resilience.
