William was born in Sudlersville, Maryland to the late Frank and Lola Mae Embert. William would often speak fondly of his childhood, remembering the summers he spent picking tomatoes and working around the family homestead. As a child he regularly attended church at Holdens Chapel and spent evenings with his family. William would remain in the Sudlersville area for the rest of his life, settling down just a few miles away from his birthplace. As a young man, he met a young lady that he fell in love with at first sight, who became the love of his life and wife, Roberta Shockley. They spent the next 69 years together as husband and wife. Their love story would result in 2 children, 2 grandchildren, and 1 great grandchild. William worked in agricultural service and supply for many years including Sudlersville Supply and later Southern States in Sudlersville, Maryland from where he would retire. William loved to have his family gather on Sunday afternoons for family dinners and working in his garden and flower beds. William enjoyed attending church throughout his entire life at Asbury United Methodist Church in Millington, MD and Holdens Chapel in Sudlersville, MD with his church families. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by three brothers, Frank Jr., Calvin, and Clifton, as well as five sisters Emma Elliott, Dorothy Casey, Catherine Jackson, Margaret Embert and Frances Embert.
