William Ward Obituary
Born in San Diego, California to Ronald and Flora (Ballestero) Ward, he was one of two children. After graduating from high school in Oregon, he eventually moved to Montana and in over time he became a Master Mason.
In Montana, he owned and operated his own business under the name of Stonewerx, Inc. Over the last five years he was working for a dear friend, Chris who is the owner of CD Welch Masonry And Tile.
Bill was the type of man who had a heart of service. Anytime during the winter, if he saw a car or truck off the road or in a snow bank, he would always stop and help. In his free time, he enjoyed fast cars, guns, knives, and the Love of horses and riding them up into the mountains of Montana.
Most importantly, Bill was a loving son, brother, uncle, father and husband.
He is survived by his mother Flora L. Ward; sister Rona K. Borg, Sr; children Christopher, Tabitha, Johnathan, Olivia and Trinity; along with a granddaughter, Sophie.
A Private Celebration of Life will be held.
