Bill had two passions in life, operating heavy equipment and photography.
Upon retirement from the Town of Dryden Public Works, and after numerous illnesses, the second passion came to light. Bill could always be seen driving around in his motorized wheelchair, stopping to capture Dryden moments on camera. He amassed a very large collection of photo albums which he cherished immensely and loved to share his pictures whenever visitors would stop in. Bill also was an avid fan of the Dryden Entertainment Series, and as an annual season ticket holder, he never missed a show.
Cremation has taken place and interment will be at a later date.
If friends so desire, donations in his memory may be made to a charity of your choice.
