In addition to many wonderful nieces and nephews.

Bill was a general manager at American Tobacco for 38 years. He was a long-time parishioner of St. Catherine who served on the board. He was a member of AHEPA Chapter 145.

Bill was a loyal friend and devoted husband. He enjoyed spending time with his family and friends more than anything especially over a good meal at one of his many favorite restaurants (including pork chops and eggs at Sam’s No. 3!).  He will be fondly remembered for his love of telling a good joke and his ability to make anyone laugh.
