Bill had a way of making people feel at ease. He will be remembered for his hard-working ethics, stubbornness, determination in getting things done, his inability to sit still, sense of humor, devotion to family and friends and how he loved his dogs, Jasper and Lukas. He found joy in hanging out by the pool on hot summer days, having campfires in the back yard, having big back-yard cookouts, camping and riding his side by side up in Stewartstown with his family. Also enjoyed building projects with his brother, Booney. Those simple pleasures became lasting memories for the people who shared them with him.

He is survived by his loving wife of 35 years Debra Benwell; mother/father Joanne Reed and Robert Reed; daughter Nikki Sullivan and her husband Matt; daughter Shayna Dutton and her husband Derek; grandchildren Deegan Dorval and Evan Sullivan; Brother Robert (Booney) Benwell and his wife Donna; sisters, Theresa Dow, Sheila Dame and her husband Ron, Dorothy Benwell and stepsister, Nancy Reed.
