Throughout his life, Will enjoyed many interests and hobbies -- including building houses, rebuilding cars, building furniture, riding his motorcycle, traveling and exploring new places, and many other things. Will is also on the library board, plays racquetball whenever he can, and also put out an album with an organization he started called “-"Songs of Smithville". Thank you for joining Will on this journey!
