Bill was a union laborer with Local 172 in Trenton.  He loved all sorts of music, anything military related and cooking for his family.  He was extremely artistic and a die-hard Eagles fan. Bill loved spending time with his family and taking trips to Wildwood; watching The Godfather, History Channel, Band of Brothers and anything military related.  He was a God-fearing man who frequently attended the “Congregation of Yahweh” which his brother Jose is pastor of.  Bill will be remembered as a hard working provider and protector who stood firm on his morals and values and put the needs of his children above all else.  He believed in doing quality work and displayed that with every task handed to him.
