He was a huge LSU fan. He loved spending his time outside being in God's creation, hiking, hunting, camping and mountain biking. Most of all, he loved helping others. He was very involved in Carpenters for Christ. William loved his grandkids, especially teaching them how to swim, ride a bike, and proudly teaching the boys how to shoot.
