For all of you who were coached by "Coach Bill", we will never forget who was the number 1 "Junk Yard Dog"

On behalf of the Worthy-Powell families, we would like to express our sincere condolences at the going home of "Coach Bill". He will truly be missed! The kid's really adored him!

The young and families of Paulsboro will never forget Coach Bill. His dedication to everyone was unconditional. He would sit on our front porch and talk sports with our son,and daughters.At least once a week he would visit, and yes like others if Coach Bill needed a ride to a game he hoppped in the car.
There will never be a person like Coach Bill, may you find peace and watch over our young ones as you always did.

It truly is sad to hear of Billys passing. I grew up in Paulsboro and he was a kind and gentle soul. I would always see him riding his bike all around the town. you will be missed Billy. Cris Dalbow Wood
