William E. Hull

William "Bill" Eugene Hull was born in Des Moines, Iowa, on June 25, 1958, to Lafayette and Priscilla Hull, one of eight children in their loving family. Bill graduated from East Union High School in Afton, Iowa in 1976, and following his graduation, he joined the Air Force as an Aircraft Maintainer, beginning a remarkable journey of service.

Over the years, Bill dedicated a combined total of 26 years to the Air Force and the Kansas Air National Guard, ultimately retiring as a Master Sergeant in 2002.

After retiring from Civil Service, Bill joined Spirit Aerosystems as a quality inspector, contributing his expertise for a decade before retiring.

In 1982, Bill married Brenda Miller, and together they were blessed with five children: Tony, Timothy, Hannah, Brianna, and Lily. Their love and partnership endured for 17 years, until Brenda's untimely passing. In 2008, Bill found happiness once again when he married Donna, a joyous chapter in his life.
