Many of you may remember William as "Billy", who was a member of the Marching 100 at St. Aug. He played trumpet, earned a music scholarship to Dillard University, and graduated with a degree in business and accounting. William put his college-acquired skills to work at Shell Oil, the New Orleans Public Schools, and became Director of Fiscal Affairs at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts.
He was the father of several children, two grand-children, and one great-grand-child.
Funeral services for William Garibaldi III are set for:
