Bill was born on May 3, 1941, and grew up in Shaker Heights, where he graduated from Shaker Heights High School. Over the years as a sales manager, he owned and operated TNT Transfer and worked for Ontario Stone. Bill enjoyed boating and he and his wife Judy were very involved with the Mentor Lagoons Yacht Club. He loved helping with the chicken and steak roasts, however having his family there was his favorite part. Bill loved his children and being with his family. After boating, Bill looked forward to snowmobiling and watching NASCAR at the family farm on Sundays with friends and family. He loved fast cars, especially Chevy's. Growing up with Labradors, Bill became a lover of the breed, as well as a huge animal lover in general; a trait that he has passed down to his children. On August 9, 2024, this passionate and determined man passed away. Bill was the life of the party and leaves his family missing his presence endlessly.
