My first memory of William was when I was in middle school at NCA cheer camp and he introduced himself as Will-YUM. So simple, so memorable. To this day, whenever I see the name, I read it that way. He was so much fun and just made you want to be a part of whatever he was doing. I had the pleasure of working with on NCA camps and he lived up to every great idea I had of him. So much fun, so caring, and just a bright light everyone needs in this world. People forget what you said but they never forget how you made them feel. ❤️

As a competitive cheerleader, there's one thing you always look for when you're out on the mat: your coaches. For me, it was Coach Will. He was always serious, watching intently as we performed-but by the time the pyramid ended and the dance began, his expression said it all. We just hit zero.
From anxiously watching every move to pounding the mat in excitement as we danced our hearts out, his voice was always the loudest in the crowd. Coach Will wasn't just a coach; he laid the foundation for my cheerleading career.
He filled us with confidence, strength, and a whole lotta sass!
I've never met another coach like him; he was one of a kind. William, I'm sending you so much love. Thank you for being a part of some of the most cherished memories of my life. Rest Peacefully💖
