William came into this world fighting and fought the good fight for 9 ½ years. He was a little guy but a tough guy, hence the nick name Wild Man Willie. He was the air his mommy, daddy, and sister breathed. William was known to so many wonderful people. You couldn’t go anywhere that someone didn’t stop and say, “oh hey is that William?”. He was so well known and loved by the medical world and special needs arena. His mommy and daddy vowed that William would go and do everything they did like travel on the airplane to Houston along with all the special equipment he required on an hourly basis; he also went to Denver, New Mexico, California, and Nevada, not to mention everywhere he went along locally.

William leaves behind a true legacy of hope and determination.  He will be in our hearts forever.  In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the following in William’s memory:
