A man of unwavering faith and a devoted Catholic, William lived his life guided by love, humility, and devotion to his family.

William had a sharp mind-a true math whiz with an incredible sense of direction who seemed to know every road by heart. He enjoyed spending time fishing, and most of all, being with his grandchildren, who were his greatest joy.
