Bill was a terrific motorcycle riding buddy and a dear friend. I enjoyed all the long rides we took to Laughlin, Las Vegas, and Pomona for the Championship Drag Races along with Mike, Fernando and Kathy. Bill had a big heart and a great sense of humor. He faced his illness with great courage and always maintained a positive attitude. I cherish all the memories we shared together. My sincerest condolences go out to Bill's family and friends. God Bless Bill!

Bill was the true meaning of a Man's Man. To say he had a big heart would be a understatement. HUGE would be better. A proud man who loved his family and bragged of them on a regular basis. Bill took no BS from anyone at anytime yet all who knew him respected him. Bill was easy to talk to and fun to be around. Where ever he entered smiles and laughter were close by. His humor and demeanor will be missed and never forgotten. I am very proud that I called Bill Davis my friend. Ride free buddy!!!!
