Another child was born. He took his family on camping trips, visits to national parks, motorboating, and sailing. His sense of adventure had him riding motorcycles, driving dune buggies, and skiing aggressive terrain in the Oregon mountains. He served on the school board. Changes in the wood products industry in the late-1970s prompted Bill relocate to Seattle to join Simpson Timber Co. as commodity trader and in investments. The family settled on Mercer Island, Washington, where they sailed on Lake Washington, hiked the Cascade mountains, and took advantage of cultural activities. He volunteered with the local parks department. Roberta died in 2012. Bill considered himself lucky when he reconnected with Joanna, who had lived next door in Pittsburgh. They hiked, kayaked, took many international trips, married in 2015, and relocated to Cape Cod, Massachusetts. A loyal Dartmouth graduate, Bill was an Alumni Fund volunteer for more than 25 years. He is survived by Joanna, sons Mark ’83 and Ralph, and daughter Cathy.
