He enjoyed driving cross country and watching every Red Sox game. Bill will be remembered as an excellent card player and for his love of good food. “If you live in this country, you gotta eat!” Bill’s disposition was remarkable. He always maintained an incredible attitude, even when faced with great adversity. He was always joyful, kind, happy, giving and caring to all he came in contact with.
