William "Will" James Spratt

William "Will" James Spratt, a beloved son and brother, passed away at the age of twenty-one. Will was born to Josh Spratt and Kathrine Stewart and brought joy and love to all who knew him. He graduated from Conneaut Area Senior High, leaving an indelible mark on his family, friends, and teachers, who remember him as a compassionate, genuine, and uniquely creative thinker.
Will's artistic soul shone through in his passion for loud music and playing the electric guitar. His home was often filled with the echoes of Smoke On The Water guitar riffs – much to his sister Gracie's playful annoyance. Music was his outlet, and he formed connections with others through it. One of his most cherished memories was portraying Pony Boy in the South Fayette production of The Outsiders, a role he embodied with pride, always seen wearing his leather jacket thereafter.
Beyond his artistic talents, Will's sense of humor and quick wit brought joy to everyone he encountered. He possessed a natural kindness that extended not only to people but also to animals. His love for animals started with a gift from his Papa Jim Spratt, a baby calf, and puppy, both named Uh Oh, and culminated in his deep bond with his beloved dog Flow.
As a loving older brother, Will cherished the time spent with his sister Gracie, sharing his interests and experiences with her. He held fond memories of camping at Buck Mountain with Aunt Judy, Travis, Sequoia, and his outdoor partner in crime Jeremy, creating cherished moments with family.
Will leaves behind a profound void in the hearts of his grieving family. He is survived by his parents, sister Gracie, great-grandma Ruth Calvert, grandma Debbie Spratt "Mimi," grandfather Mike Ellis, as well as numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, a circle of great friends from across Pennsylvania, and his beloved Penguins. He is joyfully reunited with many relatives, but especially his papa Jim Spratt and granddad Sonny Calvert.
Calling hours will be held on Friday, August 4th, from 12 to 2 pm and 5 to 6 pm at the Royal-Coleman Funeral Home, 6028 U.S. Highway 6, Linesville.  A memorial service will follow at 6 pm with Eric McGuirk officiating.  We invite you to join our family in celebrating the bright and beautiful life of Will, a person whose compassion, humor, and artistic spirit touched us all.
