Notes

He received a degree in Physics from Grove City College (Grove City, PA). William served on active duty in the Navy during World War II in both the Atlantic and Pacific. He was employed as a research engineer for National Gypsum Co. for 30 years before retiring in 1983. He and his wife were devout Catholics attending St. Gregory. He was previously a member of the Amherst Players. Other interests of his included bowling and golf. I remember him for his great smile, friendly and easy going disposition. He made one feel welcome in the family. (F-DOC, obit)
