A lover of music, Bill enjoyed attending concerts and music festivals in New York City, as well as other states. For many years he could often be found at the Jazz Mobile at Grant's Tomb on Wednesdays and the annual African Arts Festival in Brooklyn.

Bill gave his life to Christ and regularly attended services at the Christian Cultural Center in Brooklyn.
