Raised and spent most of his life in the mountains of Colorado, Bill was a partner with his Dad and younger brother, Noble in a longtime local Kremmling, Colorado business, C.E. Underbrink & Sons Machine Shop. Graduating from West Grand High School in 1973, Bill loved football, track and wrestling. Bill was an excellent machinist, cowboy, roper and team penner, winning many saddles and cash prizes. Moved to Arizona in 2010 retiring after working for the City of Scottsdale Airport to enjoy golfing, traveling, visiting family and friends and always helping others with handyman projects. Bill will be remembered by many, as one of the most honest, selfless individuals that they have ever met and will be greatly missed.
