Bill was a realtor for the majority of his life he received many awards for the quality services he provided to his customers over the years. In his free time he enjoyed fishing, especially going every year up North to Kimball lake with family and friends. He was an avid collector of antique/vintage items as well as hunting and fishing equipment. He spent many hours going to garage and estate sales looking for treasures. He held his own sales at his country home of his many collectibles. He seemed to love meeting people and sharing his stories more than the resale of his items! A Celebration of his life will be a later date with family and friends. His ashes will be buried at his father’s gravesite at St. Bernard's Catholic cemetery.
