Subject: [NFBF-Daytona] Passing of Bill Outman


Our wonderful friend William “BILL “Hall Outman died this afternoon on Friday May 9 2025 in Halifax Medical and Health Center Daytona Beach of residual physical effects from a stroke this past week.

When Bill was taken off life supports, Bill’s brother Wayne and sister Lora, his friend and stepfather Brian Norton, numerous Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins were present in his hospital room praying with his Pastor David Troxler of First Christian Church, Disciples of Christ Daytona.

Bill was 60 years old, and has been an actively involved member of the National Federation of the Blind of Florida for the past 30 years.

Bill had been an amazing Secretary for his NFBF Greater Daytona Beach Chapter for  numerous years, and his interesting and detailed minutes were often better than the collective memories of those participants attending. Bill was a unique and talented writer and a perfectionist on the savant autism scale.

Bill had a love of baseball, and could recite from memory the baseball players names and statistics for baseball history going back during the last 100 years.

Bill was extremely well informed about politics and legislation, and was an active member of the NFBF legislative committee, and the Florida Democrat Disability caucus.

Bill was a graduate of the St. Augustine Florida School for the Blind, and a schoolmate of Peggy Fleischer. Bill has been a client and student for the past several years at the Conklin Davis Center for the Visually Impaired, and a ceremony at the Conklin Davis Center will be held for Bill Outman on Tuesday May 13, 2025 at 2:30 p.m.

We will send out a Flyer describing this event for Bill in a subsequent notice.



Please keep Bill and his family in your prayers,

Brian Edward Norton
