WILLIAM H. Age 68, a resident of Albuquerque since 1948, passed away on Sunday, May 29, 2011. He is survived by his wife of 37 years, Robin; son, David Green; grandchildren, Crystal Sweeney, John Sweeney, and Brittany Sweeney; and two great-grandchildren, all of Albuquerque. He was preceded in death by his daughter, Cathy Sweeney; and his parents, William and Rosie Green. As a teenager, Bill earned the coveted Eagle Scout award, and the values instilled in him through scouting contributed greatly to shaping his entire adult life. He was retired from Insurance Services Office, Inc. (ISO), where he was responsible for analyzing fire fighting capabilities in cities, towns, villages, and fire districts throughout New Mexico and determining the applicable fire insurance protection classification. He was tapped on countless occasions to provide critical review and input to policies and procedures governing community fire protection classifications nationwide. Earlier in his career he had become an acknowledged expert in the insurance analysis of commercial properties, specializing in those protected by fire protection sprinkler systems. He held the designation of Chartered Property Casualty Underwriter. Bill also enjoyed a more than 45 year involvement in the sport of purebred dogs, becoming an approved American Kennel Club dog show judge, occupying various offices and positions in several dog clubs in the Albuquerque area, and serving as Rio Grande Kennel Club's delegate to the American Kennel Club since 2002. In his "spare" time, Bill could often be found pursuing his love of fly-fishing, hunting, photography, and embracing New Mexico's many natural wonders. Bill's ashes will rest in a special place somewhere in the New Mexico outdoors that he cherished so much. Memorial Services will be held Saturday, June 18, 2011, 2:00 p.m., at French - Westside Chapel. Please visit our online guestbook for Bill at www.RememberTheirStory.com FRENCH 9300 Golf Course Rd.
