William Louis Hiss
William Hiss, a retired professional geologist/hydrologist with the U.S. Geological Survey, and successful second-career stockbroker, died Wednesday April 12, in Villa de Antofagasta de la Sierra, Catamarca, Argentina. He was 75. At the time of his death, William was participating in a field trip to study the geology of the Andes. He died of natural causes. He is survived by his companion, Shela Greenlaw of Clayton, CA. Other immediate family include his brother, George Hiss of Wichita, KS and his wife Judy and their two sons Jeff and Kurt; his brother 'Gene' Hiss (deceased) and daughter Kathy and sons Mike and Bruce; two daughters, Lisa Willow of Albuquerque, NM and Amy Hiss of Davis, CA; one son, Eric Hiss, of San Francisco; and three grandchildren: Ben Willow, Cooper Reynolds, and Finn Hiss. Others that were especially important to him in recent years included Jennifer Ma Rechenbach and daughter Zoey and Valentina Kostenko. Bill was born in Great Bend, Kansas in 1931. His parents, Rosa and William Hiss, were farmers during the Great Depression, and the rough times experienced by Bill and his family and others made a lasting impression on him that influenced him deeply. He had great respect for those that struggled against adversity and gave generously to those that he felt deserved some extra help. He left the family farm determined to make a go of it, and talked his way into his first job, building a bridge as part of a construction crew. A quick study, he learned basic carpentry skills on the fly, and convinced others he knew what he was doing. Through grit and determination he was able to get into college. Bill graduated from Kansas State University in 1953 with a degree in Geology. He entered the Air Force in 1953, was trained as a meteorologist at Texas A&M, and served as a weather reconnaissance officer at Burtonwood R.A.F. Station in Warrington, England. He said that attempting to predict the weather for pilots toughened him up more than any other experience and prepared him well for his dissertation defense. His weather predictions were based on the available technology of the day (thus not always on the mark) leaving many a pilot ill-tempered and quite vocal about their displeasure. After leaving the Air Force in 1957, he joined the reserves, where he was promoted to the rank of Major. He received a M.S. in Geology from the University of Oklahoma in 1960, and was an active member of the Flat Earth Society. He studied ferromagnesian minerals in the basic igneous intrusive rocks in the Wichita Mountains of Oklahoma. He completed his doctoral dissertation in Geology at the University of Colorado in 1975. William studied the movement of ground water in Permian Guadalupian aquifer systems in southeastern New Mexico and western Texas. Results of his research formed the basis of a lawsuit between the two states over water rights. Upon finishing his dissertation, he accepted a full-time job with the U.S. Geological Survey in Albuquerque, New Mexico and then in Menlo Park, California, where he was a hydrologist/geologist for almost 20 years. In collaboration with others, he developed a large number of computer applications used to store and analyze data on groundwater resources in New Mexico and west Texas, primarily for modeling the Capitan Reef and a variety of hydro-geologic applications and complex groundwater systems. After leaving the Survey, he embarked on a new career as a stockbroker. He was very interested in the world around him and had diverse interests. He was a member of the Northern California Geological Society, the Geological Society of America, the Mineralogical Society of America, and the Berkeley Camera Club, where he recently won several awards for photographs of his travels to exotic places. He loved ballroom dance and he collected minerals and crystals and books from around the world. He was the founder of the William Hiss Award for 'Creativity in the Earth Sciences' at the University of Colorado, Boulder, where he received his PhD. He will be remembered fondly by his friends and family for his intellect, good humor, his love of natural science, his gracious manner and warm conversation, and his love of animals. Memorial services are pending.
