Bill retired from IBM 1991 and enjoyed an adventurous lifestyle of hunting, fishing and spending time with friends and family. In October 2013, Bill moved to Richmond, Va to spend time with his daughter and family. He spent his final days surrounded by love and laughter. Bill leaves behind a lifetime of stories and memories to be treasured for years to come. His smiles, jokes and amazing love of life touched the lives of so many people he met.

I have known Bill Priddy for about 54 years, and have shared hunting and fishing camps with him throughout south and central Texas. Bill was not only a skilled hunter and fisherman, but he was a friend on whom I could count, who made our camps cheerful and whose companionship was treasured.
Bill will be missed and our memory of him will be treasured. Kerry Owen, Burleson, Tx.
