He and his wife enjoyed camping, hiking and square dancing. Bill suffered from multiple sclerosis in his later years, but he maintained an active lifestyle into his 60’s. Bill was proud of his heritage and would be quick to tell you that his ancestors came to America before the revolution. He was also proud of his investments and money management, which over time allowed him to buy a house and land in the country, provide a secure future for his family and establish Mollie’s Cat Place, a sanctuary for senior cats that Bill and his wife founded in 2010.   Bill is survived by his wife of 30 years, Iris Porta; one son, Jason Reaves and wife Lisa; grandchildren, Alex, Nathan, and Naomi Reaves; brothers, West Reaves and David Reaves; and sister, Lissa Lederman.
