     Bill loved his family so much he gave them all nicknames. Bill always had a story to tell and enjoyed making others laugh. Most say he should have been a comedian. Bill also loved and had a soft spot for animals and pets. Along with spending with his family, Bill enjoyed going with his wife to Uncle Pete's Diner in Rusagonis. He always enjoyed his fish with fries and gravy along with pie. You would always catch Bill with either a coffee or an Alpine in his hand.
