My sincere condolences to Jackie, Joel, Mark, Tracy, Diane, and the rest of his Family. Tuesday, November 14, 2017 marked the end of an era in Fruitport. On that day, Fruitport lost a lifelong, one-of-a-kind Resident. He was truly a self made man, and a true entrepreneur. He created and operated many successful business enterprises. As far as I know, the only paycheck he ever drew in his lifetime was during his service to his Country in the U.S. Army. Bill was a man-of-his-word. It was his bond. You could do business with him on his handshake. When he said he would do something, he did it! When he said that he would not do it; God, Moses, and a team of horses could not sway him from his path. If you were his friend, you were a friend for life. However, if you got on his list, you were there for life as well. Those of us who new him well, new that under that crusty exterior was a heart of gold. Billy, rest in Peace. We will truly miss you. Man, will we ever, ever miss you. Your lifelong friend, Jim McWhorter.
Our best wishes, prayers & love ~
