He fought a valiant battle against lymphoma cancer for 1-1/2 years. Bill was the husband of Sharon P. (Love) Luyben. They celebrated 28 years of marriage on March 23, 2019. Born in Wilmington, DE, he was a son of William L. and Janet N. Luyben of Perkiomenville, PA.

Bill graduated from Lehigh University in 1986 with a Bachelor’s degree in accounting. He went on to become a CPA.
