In his earlier years, as a farmer,he logged in countless hours on farmland at Monon, Indiana. In later years, he traded his tractor for a hardhat, clocking innumerable hours at the U.S. Steel Mills located in Gary, Indiana.
In the interim, there were wars to be won. Bill wore the U.S. Army uniform in World War I, and stretched the age limit requirement for enlistment in the U.S. Navy Seabees in World War II.
Bill left a legacy of laughter and tears for family and friends.
