Bill was a very large man, probably well over 300 pounds when I knew him near the end of his life. He was working as a salesman and died in his sleep in a motel, while on a business trip (sharing the room with his boss, if I remember correctly). Paul Cummings rode out to Alabama in the herase that went to pick up his body. Paul then drove Bill's car back to Arkansas.

Around 2000, when I stayed with George Ann in Batesville during the Newark school reunion, Howard (Bill's younger son) and his wife were staying there too. He told stories about how Bill used to have a pet bear that was chained up behind the "beer joint" he (Bill) operated in Newark (before the county voted to go dry). People would buy beer to give to the beer (who would drink it and become intoxicated). I believe a version of this story is related in the Newark history book.¹
