Bill, or Billy as he was known to his immediate family, was amazing.

The past few years of Bills life he attended the programs and activities of SKILLS, inc. as well as residing in one of their group homes. He was blessed to be loved and cared for by many.

His favorite past time was coloring. He loved to sit on the porch and watch the birds who came to visit his various feeders and color. If he wasn’t able to sit outside he was equally as happy to watch animal or monster truck shows on television, while continuously coloring.

He is survived by sister Jacquelyne Callahan and husband Gary, niece Julia Pesce and husband William, nephew John Burns and wife Paloma Celis Carbajal, nephew David Callahan, great nephew Nathan Callahan, many cousins as well as many friends at SKILLS, Inc.
