Bill and Libby got married and had two children, Danielle and Michael. Bill's family was his passion and most important to him. Bill liked to travel, he and his wife spent their honeymoon in Brazil and they also took trips to the Bahamas and Florida many times throughout the years. Bill loved Disney World, especially when sharing his vacation with his children as well as his nieces and nephews. Bill loved to laugh, retell funny stories and jokes and he really liked to make others around him laugh. Bill's favorite sports team was the Buffalo Bills. He also liked any team that his children or nieces and nephews played on. Bill's favorite songs were "It's a small world" and "Everybody wang chung tonight." He was a master at the "quiet game" with all of the kids. He really enjoyed spending time with his children and loved babies. If there was a baby at a gathering, he was always holding them and he would soothe them with his famous "wuzza wuzza" songs until they nodded off to sleep. Bill was known to be generous, kind- hearted and sweet. His children and their activities was his first priority in life. He would go out of his way to help anyone in need. Bill would brighten a room with his sense of humor and big smile. Bill was loved by many family and friends and he will be dearly missed and fondly remembered.
