Bill loved God, his family, and his country. Born and raised in Chicago, Bill dedicated his career to the city and its residents. He was a proud graduate of Loyola Academy and identified with the Ignatian principle of “men and women for others.” He completed his undergraduate degree at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Civil Engineering and his MBA at the University of Chicago while working at the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA). He followed a tradition of public service, embodied by the generations that preceded him, who served with the Chicago Police Department (CPD). Bill started as a police officer with the transit detail, and when the unit was transferred to CPD, Bill stayed on with CTA and joined an accelerated management program. He served the CTA for over 34 years, as head of the Paratransit program, Rail Operations, Bus Operations and ultimately as Chief Operating Officer. He made an indelible impact on the many people he mentored and through the dynamic leadership he brought to the city’s transit system. After leaving the CTA, Bill continued working as a consultant in the transit industry, advising transit agencies across the world. A larger-than-life personality, he was dedicated first and foremost to his family and close friends, and he particularly loved being a grandfather. He was known for hosting epic holiday parties and always opening his home to others. He loved traveling, taking his family members on many exciting vacations, and he especially enjoyed the trips he took with his beloved wife, Ileene-Marie, visiting the Holy Land, China, and other memorable places. He was known for his generosity, warmth, and fierce loyalty, and he will be deeply missed by the many whose lives he touched.
