Bill was a Harley-Davidson enthusiast, even adventuring a cross-country ride across the United States and back. He could be found any day at the Riverwalk enjoying aTim Horton's coffee while feeding the ducks.

Bill will be fondly remembered for his generous nature.
Surviving is his mother of Lakewood; sister Cynthia Vullo of Ashville; nieces and nephews of whom he was extremely proud of Jason, Shauna and Zachary Buck, Melissa McKinney and Kiana Vullo as well as several great nieces and nephews and aunts and uncles.
He was preceded by his stepfather, Dale Gantz, who helped raise him, (Dec. 20, 2005), brother Terrence Buck (Aug. 12, 2010), brother Jeffrey Buck (Nov. 15, 1995), brother-in-law Clement (CJ) Vullo (Nov. 15, 2024) and niece Suzanne Buck (Feb. 22, 2016).
