 Biff son of William F. and Janet Spiker Armstrong, he was born October 17, 1962. Biff was an avid hunter and outdoorsman.

Biff was a graduate of Central Preston High School class of 1980 and held a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration with a specialization in Computer Science from Fairmont State University. He was employed by the Preston County Commission as Network Administrator.

Biff was a dedicated member of the Kingwood Volunteer Fire Department, where he served as President twice. For many years, he served the KVFD in the “meat room” in preparation for the Buckwheat Festival and volunteered at the monthly Fireman’s Breakfast.
