He was an amazingly unique, thoughtful, outspoken, caring, talented, stubborn and amusing man. He always made certain that his family had what he thought they needed-whether they agreed or not. William never left a person in doubt about where he stood on a subject that mattered to him-whether they wanted to hear it or not. He always showed concern and offered advice and support to those he felt needed it'“ a champion for those who needed one.
William was a life-long, self-taught musician; he played guitar and the keyboard. He had a wonderful and soothing voice. Anyone who knew him, has most likely experienced how determined William truly could be; he was usually right. William was never afraid, no matter how though it was, to admit when he was wrong and make amends.
He was a witty guy, always ready with a funny, sarcastic and/or off-the-wall comment to cheer those around him. William loved many things including; his family, dogs, friends, music and cars. He loved visiting the casino and lived for the next round of golf. He was a respected and well-liked man and affected many lives with his passing. William will be loved and missed greatly by those who knew him.
