Bill was a devoted husband and loving father who cherished life and fought the good fight. He worked as an educator for over 35 years, alongside being a creative artist and backyard landscaper. Bill read many books and his knowledge of history seemed almost infinite.
An avid outdoor enthusiast, he traveled the world and left no corner uncharted. He made many memorable trips with his family to Yosemite and the Grand Canyon, and taught his family to appreciate the beauties of nature along the way.
He was a patient, caring, and great man who left a lasting impression on every person he met, and will be sorely missed by generations of friends and family.
Bill is survived by his wife, Judi; son, Farrin; daughter-in-law, Sarah; granddaughter, Bailey; son, Shaynon; daughter-in-law, Elizabeth; and sister Diana.
