Bill was a loving son, brother, father, and grandfather. He was kindhearted and a good friend. Many would say that he was the type of person to give you the shirt off his own back. He was always the center of attention and could make a silent room burst into laughter.

Services will be held at Christ the King Catholic Church on Saturday, April 22, 2023. Visitation starting at 9 am followed by Mass of Christian Burial at 10 am. Burial will be at Laurel Hill Cemetery following a luncheon in the parish hall.

Monetary gifts would be most appreciated in lieu of flowers to help the family with funeral expenses.
