Bill retired from the Metro Nashville Tax Assessors office. Bill was self-taught in many areas that most studied formally, but he had tremendous impact on people he mentored and taught in the areas of energy, mind-body connection and nutrition. Bill was devoted to his wife and daughter. His patient, kind, mannerly disposition was loved and appreciated by his family, friends, co-workers and all who knew him. He was a true gentle man with a loving, kind heart and soul. His spirituality was very strong and personal. Special thanks to caregivers and relatives Dee Dee, Holly Herrman and Joe Casey.
