Bill lived in Hackettstown, NJ for over 30 years before moving to Effort, PA to be closer to his daughter.
Bill was a loving dog owner and enjoyed the companionship of his canines throughout his life. If you visited him at his house a dog was always close by or in his lap. When his children were young, he enjoyed family camping trips in the summer including trips to Rhode Island and Florida. Bill happily volunteered to support his kid’s interests: Youth Soccer, Boy Scouts, Trinity United Methodist Church Youth Groups, and the Appalachian Service Project.
