William “Billy” Joseph Gorman, Jr. passed away on February 24, 2026, at the age of 70 after a long and difficult battle with cancer.

Billy was known for challenging boundaries, speaking his mind and standing up for the things he believed in. His years in recovery were among the most meaningful parts of his life, and he was deeply committed to the fellowship he found in Narcotics Anonymous. He valued tough love, real conversations, and the kind of guidance that came from lived experience. He also loved riding his motorcycle and had a lifelong fondness for German Shepherds, especially his dog Roxy.

As we make arrangements to honor Billy’s life, we are hoping to give him a simple, dignified farewell that reflects who he was. He will be cremated, and we are raising funds to help cover the associated expenses and ensure everything is handled with care.

Any contribution—no matter the amount—will help lighten the burden and is deeply appreciated. Your support means a great deal to our family during this time.

Thank you for helping us honor Billy’s memory.
