Bill proudly served in World War II providing medical supplies to those who survived the Atomic bomb. After building his own home, Bill worked as a carpenter building many homes and businesses still in existence. Bill spent many hours gardening and wood-working with most items given to others.
Bill was surrounded by special relatives, nieces, nephews, and friends who provided him with lots of love, companionship, and care. The family extends much love and thanks for a special caregiver who became like family, Debbie Collins Rancourt and to special family members Barbara Farrington, niece, and Justin Richardson, great-nephew.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial contributions to Pleasant Union United Methodist Church, 5929 Coble Church Road, Liberty, NC 27298 or to Hospice of Randolph County, 446 Vision Drive, Asheboro, NC 27203.
