There was not much information about when or where Bill met his wife Sherry. What was known, however, was that the couple got married towards the end of July 2018.

It was likely that Sherry was not Bill’s first wife. There was a mention of a fiancee named Judy around 2001. However, it was not known if the two of them ever got married.

Furthermore, Bill also had a son, possibly from a previous wife, who had died a little before 1994. Again, there was no further information about this son and the mother of his son.

It was also likely that Bill’s wife, Sherry, was also previously married. She had two young children, a son, and a daughter, but they could not be Bill’s children as they too old, and Bill and Sherry only got married in 2018.

Anyway, regardless of whether or not either of them was previously married, they found each other eventually and were happily living together in Wisconsin.
