Bill was married to his sweetheart Gerry for 65 years. They have been residents of Sunset Beach for 20 years. They are members of Calabash Presbyterian Church, where Bill was an usher.

Bill is survived by two adoring daughters, Tracy Wittman and her husband Kevin, and Gay Myrick. He was a proud grandfather to Jason and Matthew Wittman, Samantha Deason and Mariah Myrick. Bill was blessed with three great grandchildren, Sean and Allyana Wittman and Caiden Block.
