Bill was a fervent follower of Jesus Christ and cherished his family and faith above all else. Taking the scripture to heart, he lived to be a fisher of men, spreading the word of the Lord to all. He was active in both the church and community, a former member of the J.C. ‘s, an active member of the Knights of Columbus and later serving as a lector and eucharistic minister. Bill diligently worked to provide for his family, spending many years in grocery management. Through his example, he taught his children the value of a steadfast and earnest work ethic. Bill spent his final days sharing the love of God with his community, at peace, knowing he will find his final resting place in the comfort of the Lord’s full embrace.
