William Goehring was born June 6, 1934, at Mandan, N.D., to Christian and Marie (Singer) Goehring. He attended country school in Selfridge, N.D., where his family owned a farm for eight years. In 1963, he moved to the Boise area where he lived until his death.
He held various positions which included working for Morrison Knudsen, cement finishing, auto mechanic in his own home-based shop, security guard janitorial services and from 1992-95, he was an auto dismantler for Barger Mattson of Boise.

He loved to camp, fish, go to the car races in Meridian, work on cars, and spend time with his sons and grandchildren.
