Bill and Tami enjoyed dancing, traveling, and spending time with his large family. He especially enjoyed tending their small acreage and growing his garden. He was a good man who loved deeply and was loved, gruff on the outside, teddy bear on the inside, always ready to help anyone and will be deeply missed by many. Per Bill's wishes there will be no service. Love and hug your family closely.
