A hard working and determined man, William along with his wife Joyce, set up and managed a number of businesses, including an ambulance service in Livingston County, a cleaning service for residential and commercial buildings, owners of rental homes, plus other enterprises too numerous to mention.

William will be cremated, and a family planned memorial service is planned/scheduled for Monday, May 30th, 2022, at Calvary Baptist Church in Paducah, KY; both William and Joyce spent many active years worshiping the Lord and gaining spiritual guidance. Visitation will be held from 2 PM – 4 PM. The family has invited all of their friends and kin to bring a covered dish and join them in a celebration of the lives of both William and Joyce. Anyone wishing to share a short story, funny experience, or special memories of them are welcome to read them during the memorial.
