When not working or taking care of the family property, Bill loved hunting and fishing. Checking his game cameras and sharing pictures with his friends and family was one of his favorite activities. Bill was a very wise man, and held an abundance of knowledge. Bill loved spending time with his family, especially his beloved grandchildren. He was well-known and had many friends. Bill was also a member of the Second Baptist Men’s Group. He would help and share his knowledge with anybody that he could, and was famous for his dad jokes. Bill will be sadly missed by all who knew him. Memorials may be made to Second Baptist Church of Bowling Green or the Missouri Department of Conservation.
