Bill was a gifted engineer and loved his work. He worked for Wallace Manufacturing from 1970 and then B.W.

In his later years, Bill traveled with his sister and brother-in-law and with friends, visiting many countries in Europe and the UK, as well as Russia and China. Bill had a special love for animals, from a hawk and a racoon he had as pets when he was a teenager to an occasional dog, several cats, and finally, his beloved Siamese, Sam.
