Being the joyous, caring person that he was, He made long lasting friendships and bonds with so many people.  His generosity knew no bounds. Most recently, he joined "The Great Cycle Challenge". In which, he was riding his bicycle to raise money for the Children's Cancer Research Fund. Family meant everything to him. Foremost he was a caring and loving husband and father. He loved to get together with family any chance he could. You could always see his face light up when telling stories and just enjoying the company of his large family. Bill filled his life with many things and hobbies alike. Just to name a few: outdoors, bike riding, air shows, kite festivals, Automotive races (Indy car, Formula 1, MotoGP, etc.), slot car racing and competitions, movies, photography, cars and motorcycles, woodworking and furniture, and gardening. He also loved to combine these activities with family and friends. Kayaking with the family was always a go to. He also combined his love of woodworking into his career working for Knoll, Inc for more than 20 years. He started working in the wood shop to which he became the Supervisor.
