marks the end of an exceptional unparalleled era. Billy was the true definition of a

Renaissance man! A self-taught master of all trades. Including carpentry, mechanics,

masonry, scuba-diving, boating and fishing, motorcycling, eclectic artwork and unique,

witty masterpieces which include, but not limited to, an array of snow sculptures; such as

“Easter Island”, which even caught the attention of news outlets! Whether Billy was

crafting an outhouse from the ground up for a client like Chik-Fil-A, repairing an engine,

wrenching on his Harley Davidson, building a garden, or exploring the depths while scuba

diving as, “The Aqua Man”, Billy Winner approached every challenge and journey with

fearless ingenuity and a stead-fast “can-do spirit”, which he carried with him until he was

called Home. William Winner was the epitome of a genuine man with infinite honesty and

integrity. With a name like “Winner”, Billy lived up to his name as a man who surpassed all

expectations of being a wonderful human being, a man of God, an exceptional “Winner”.
