His wife Carolyn Moon described Bill as a person that loved sitting behind the counter to talk with the truck drivers asking them what Iowa 80 can do for them to make their life much easier. As result of his ability to communicate with the truck drivers, he had a chance to get a lot of ideas that made the Iowa 80 Truck Stop better.
