Billy was a man of many talents and interests. He had a deep appreciation for nature and enjoyed birdwatching, fishing, and camping with family.

A dedicated Scout Master, Billy trained a group of boys from Cub Scouts all the way to Eagle Scouts, imparting values that would shape them into admirable young men.
