I had the pleasure of working with Bill at Metropolitan Rolling Door for maybe a decade or so. He was fun to work with had a great sense of humor was detailed in his work. After his retirement I would occasionally send him a picture of a Mopar car on a trailer. I had recently spoke with him. Deepest condolences to Carla and Family, you are in out thoughts and prayers.

I have fond memories of conversations I would have with Bill at our neighborhood pool or while walking around the neighborhood. I always left with a smile and laughter on my face. Entertaining conversations to say the least! I will never forget the day he shared his thick loose leaf binder which contained a step by step description and many colorful pictures of the restoration of his 1969 Plymouth GTX. He was very proud of this car. I was extremely appreciative that he shared this experience with me. Rest in peace Bill. You will be missed.
Sincerely, John Sparacino
We met Bill in 1993 when we purchased the home next door. We shared a driveway; he always stocked cookies in his fridge for our 2 1/2 year old. Shortly after we moved in, we had our 2nd son... who nicknamed Bill "B" while he called or son "G" which he still gets called. Rest in Peace Bill. Our thoughts and prayers will be with Carla and the kids.
