In 1980, he married Sharon Oliver and they raised a daughter Leanna, and a son, Kegan. In 2007 he married Robin Tyler.

Bill served in the Army Air Corp.  He worked for Bell Telephone for several years in Pennsylvania, and then worked as a timber faller in Montana.   After a major career change, he became a potter, and for the last 38 years has loved the creativity and friendships that brought into his life. His pottery business, Granite Lake Pottery, thrived for years in New Hampshire.  After moving to Idaho, he started Raft River Pottery and had a studio in his home in Georgetown.   He could frequently be found fishing during any season, or cutting firewood which he generously distributed to anyone who needed it.
