He was a good man and kind to all, he never hesitated to help anyone along the way. Billy was truly one of a kind, when they made him, they broke the mold. A kind, fun loving soul with a big heart and an easy smile. His dry humor could make you laugh hard.

Billy loved his family and was very protective of and enjoyed being with them.

Harleys and dirt bikes ere his life. "Nice night for a ride," he would say.

He will be loved and missed by everyone that knew and loved him.

Wild Bill will live forever, because legends never die.

His boots can never be filled.

"Until we meet again, I love you with all my heart."
