Bill was born on February 17, 1936 in Bremond, Texas. He entered the USAF after high school in 1955. After the USAF, Bill moved to Clearwater Florida and played softball with the Clearwater Bombers. This is where he met his wife, Judy. They were married in 1960 in Clearwater. They returned to Bill's home state of Texas in 1964.
