Amid the peaceful beauty of the areas mountains, Bill had some of his deepest talks with God. He enjoyed golf, traveling, wood carving. Under the name Wild Art Acrylics, he was a local painter of wildlife.
Bill will be remembered for his great smile and sense of humor. A captivating story-teller, he often recounted memories of a humble childhood on the farm in upstate Pennsylvania.  He told stories of adventures with his sisters, long walks in the woods with his father, and the ways his mother made him feel special. Frugal, but very giving, he was always willing to help those in need; and when he gave, he gave generously. He was a loyal Philadelphia Eagles and Phillies fan. He was proud of his Polish heritage and could fix anything "like a Pollock". He had a heart for conservation of our nature resources and an overzealous passion for recycling. The life of a party, Bill always made those around him feel welcome. He was a good, good man.
