Sr. William Gregory Muzquiz

William "Billy" Muzquiz was born April 20, 1958 in Kansas City, MO to Heriberto and Mary Lucy Muzquiz. Bill grew up in the Westside community, moved to the Turner community in Kansas City, Kansas, and spent his retirement years at McKenna Villa community at The Lake of the Ozarks. He was a simple, hard-working, family man and worked several years as a metal finisher at MPP. Bill was a sports fanatic and a true Kansas City Chiefs fan. He loved spending time with his children and their families. His biggest joy in life was sharing his lake house for all to come and enjoy. Bill loved to sit back and watch everyone smile. He was a compassionate, honest, respectful, non-judgmental man. Although he was a man of few words, Bill had true words just when you needed to hear them. He will be missed by many.
