William Carey Caldwell

William Carey Caldwell was born on June 4, 1944 in Glen Ridge New Jersey and passed away on March 5, 2025. Growing up in New Jersey he attended  Mountain Lakes High school and then graduated from Vanderbilt university, in Nashville, Tennessee in 1967 with a degree in mechanical engineering. He initially went to work for Westinghouse before being mentored in hydraulics. Bill spent many years designing hydraulic systems and dedicated himself later to teaching people throughout United States of how to work more safely and efficiently with hydraulics. He is currently being nominated post humorously into the international fluidpower society’s Hall of Fame. Bill had just retired on January 1 from NTT training center in Centennial, CO as a part-time hydraulic instructor. 

Bill is survived by his wife, Karen. His daughter, Jane, and her husband, Kevin Schindler. His two grandsons Micah and Gabriel Caldwell his two sisters, Diane West, and her husband Bob along with Lauren Caldwell. And lastly, his brother Jeff Caldwell. 

Bill enjoyed working out since he was a young teenager and visited Chuze several times every week up until when he was infirmed just a few short weeks ago. His other passion involved his church and his love for Bible translation. He was a financial partner with the Seed Company. He was committed to seeing the Bible translated in every language in the world. His love for his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was evident in the way he lived and shared the gospel amongst his family and friends.

Absent the body he is now present with our Lord. He is sorely missed and will remain forever in our hearts.
