Bill was a truck driver on and off his entire life. From the age of 15 he could tell you whatever you needed to know about a car. His knowledge of vehicles led him to establish a car dealership in Kahoka known as Santa Fe Auto which he owned and operated. He loved to play cards and was a euchre and cribbage whiz. He loved his animals, especially his chickens. Faith ~ Family ~ Friends. His faith was number one in his life and he testified to that fact every day. Family was precious and many friends were made through his sharing of the Gospel. He worshiped at and was a member of Bible Baptist Church in Kahoka.

Funeral services were held Monday, April 2, 2018 at 2:00 p.m. at Bible Baptist Church in Kahoka with Pastor Glen Yoder officiating. Burial followed in the Day Cemetery.
