Bill was a member of countless organizations including Delmarva Antique Truck Historical Society, Antique Automobile Club of
America where he would show off his numerous pristine restored vehicles all over the east coast. Eastern Shore Seagulls, where he enjoyed gathering with friends at campgrounds for weekends and especially his winter trips to Florida. And Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association.
