Bill met the love of his life, Margo, at Lakeland University in Plymouth, WI in 1967, marrying in 1970. Bill and Margo moved to Florida in 1975 for new careers in education. Bill’s second love, his daughter Kate, was born in 1985. Husband and Dad were his most important titles and he continuously let them know.
