Bill enjoyed his 43 year career with American Airlines, working on airplanes, as he was very good with his hands. He could build just about anything and was a great handyman. When he wasn’t working, Bill was often at the lake on his boat. Bill also liked to travel, and was able to visit Germany on a few occasions. Bill took pride in his home and yardwork and loved to make people laugh with his great sense of humor.
