In connection with his expertise and knowledge of electronics, he was sought out by businesses in need of a communications consultant. Before and during World War II, Bill was a radio operator and navigator with Pan American Airways. This began a lifelong love of flying.
In 1948, Bill married Polly Goldsmith, a schoolteacher in the Harlingen School District. He established his business, Bee Mobilradio, in the 1960s. He was also a longtime member, for more than 50 years, at the First Baptist Church of Kenedy, where he served as a deacon and a Sunday school teacher, in addition to many other capacities. He served on the school board of the Pettus Independent School District for six years, and as president of the Karnes County Farm Bureau for five years.
He is survived by his wife, Polly Goldsmith Porter; a son, Billy Porter, and his wife, Elaine, of Kenedy; two daughters, Sherry  White and husband Michael  White of Bedford; Suzanne Brown and husband Dr. Edward Brown of Tyler; and three grandchildren, Elisabeth Porter Brown, Paul Douglas Brown and Carolyn Suzanne Brown.
