Bill's great passion was teaching and calling square dancing. He was a
'take charge' man with a booming voice, big smile and great sense of humor. His ability to teach and call square dancing created a demand for him over the country.

In his spare time, he was a Ham Radio buff, golfer, fisherman and was very fond of boating. He was a member of the Amateur Radio Club, Theodosia Country Club and was of the Baptist Faith.
