Bill worked as land surveyor in the Bathurst area for a brief period before landing a job as a Purchaser for the Hotel Dieu Hospital. His longest career was at the School District where he dedicated 35 years as a Purchaser and Officer of Transportation.

Beyond his professional life, he was deeply involved in the community, volunteering his time with several organizations and serving several terms as Grand Council in UCT and as a Fourth Degree Knight of Columbus.
