He continued throughout his life taking many family vacations on the beautiful beaches of Lake Michigan, as well other places around the country. After retirement, he enjoyed spending his time collecting coins and postage stamps from around the world. Bill was a loyal and humble family man, a great provider, husband, father, and friend.
