He was a salesman for High Grade Beverage in Monmouth Junction, retiring in 2001. He was recognized as top salesman several times during his 32 years at High Grade and always gave his customers special attention. 

He loved meeting people and breaking the ice between strangers.  He was quick with a joke or a handshake and was truly interested in other people’s adventures.  He was a life member of both the BPO Elks and the Moose Lodge.

Bill loved golf and worked part-time at local golf courses after retiring.  His greatest joy was his family and his undying love for his wife Peg.  Together they had 3 sons, 6 grandchildren and 1 great grandchild.  Bill spent his life on earth laughing, traveling and watching NY Giants football games.  He was a season ticket holder for over 50 years and travelled to away games and attended several Super Bowls with his sons in-tow.
