Bill was born and raised in New Jersey but came to Carteret County 25 years ago and it immediately felt like home. He worked and retired from the City of New Bern after 10 years. He never knew a stranger and was loved by all who met him. He would give the shirt off his back and help anyone in need. He loved to boat and fish and ride his Harley. His friends and family were the most important things in his life. Bill will be dearly missed by all.

He is survived by his daughters, Eileen Hott of Cleburne, TX, Kathy Nash of Kingston, OK and Erin Clare of Wilmington, NC; and grandchildren, Tiffany Brown, Brandon Hott and Justin Hott.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Wilbur and Catherine Clare.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA), c/o Gift Processing Center, P.O. Box 96929, Washington, DC 20077-7127.
