William Watts Obituary
William 'Bill' Watts
William "Bill" Donald Watts, born Aug. 17, 1956, in Douglas, Wyo., passed away peacefully July 16, 2016, following health complications and surrounded by much of his family.
Bill Watts was preceded in death by his mother Elma Watts in 1965 and father Norman Watts in 1990. He is survived by five siblings, Jack Watts of Billings, Karene Watts Miller of Knappa, Ore., Sharon Watts White of Centralia, Wash., James Watts of Centralia, Wash., and Janice Watts Schuler of Chesapeake, Va.
Bill had a heart of gold and always was there to help friends and family. He was quiet and reserved but had a wonderful sense of humor.
He loved his dogs and they were the most important friends in his life.
He took them with him everywhere he went. Shakira, his German Shepherd, would not leave his side after he was diagnosed and she took care of old "Ozzy" until he went to heaven with Bill.
Bill was always loyal and dedicated in his work, which included his four years as a Machinist Mate in the U.S. Navy, Parts Manager at Tyrell Chevrolet in Flagstaff, Ariz., and Artcraft Printers in Billings, where he worked as a printer up to the time of his death.
His hobbies were riding motorcycles and ATVs and he enjoyed fishing with his brother Jack. He will be dearly missed.
