@BPmattmorgan It means a lot to me that you took the time to order & read Ang's book. She's brilliant & I'm incredibly proud of her. Thank you so much!🙏
Thank you Tragos/Thez HOF! To share this honor with my husband makes weekend even more special. The journey has not been easy but it was worth every sleepless night, every worry, every disagreement! To the next 27 years!
Tomorrow I turn 66. 🎉❤️
As I reflect on another birthday, I’d love to hear from you.
If something I said, something I did, or even a brief conversation encouraged or inspired you, would you take a moment to share it Reading your stories would be one of the greatest birthday gifts I could receive.
Maybe you saw me speak at a school, church, or corporate event. Maybe we met during my wrestling career, while I was traveling, or even here online.
I’ve always believed there is no greater joy than meeting another person, encouraging them, and hopefully leaving their life just a little better than I found it.
Thank you, and God bless you all. 🙏
Something New To Let You Know About
Dear Friends, Fans, Families, and people I’ve not met yet,
I’m announcing today somewhat sadly but nonetheless truthfully, that I’ve reached a place where publicly more and more I need to use a wheelchair, mostly in airports, or public events. I can still walk, let there be no doubt, but I can’t walk very far without needing to rest, meaning I need to sit down. We started using the wheelchair about 18 months ago, mostly in airports. I became 78 years old on May 5th 2026. I was a long distance walker, I’ve walked in many different parts of the world, and I’m still a drummer. I can still play pretty good for 78 years old.
My talents and ambitions, and my unyielding need to be artful, and to play drums, is still as strong as it was so many years ago now. I’m just saying if you see me in a wheelchair, I’m just catching a ride, I’m not in retirement or ill or giving up, or any of those thoughts that ignite when we see people in wheelchairs. I’m making myself public and transparent about my new transport, and letting you know I’m OK. If you see me in the airports or visiting friends in the music arenas or theatres say hi, I don’t bite, I’ll just look different, as pictured here. Much love to you all and I’ll keep rocking until I’m dead.
Rock forever and ever,
Bill Ward
And the secrets we hide, can be dangerous to our health, I’m letting transparency prevail, with love and progression.
Bill Ward
