He was recognized as a leader of the paper and forest products industry. He also pursued a wide variety of additional business and investment interests.

His interest in. horses began with the desire to improve the working horses at the K4 Ranch where he managed the herds of registered and commercial Hereford cattle. He remained interested in the current livestock operations of his son, John, on the K4 Ranch lands. His interest in horses expanded over time to include well known show and racing stock.

W. Kieckhefer Foundation, an Arizona charitable trust. He has been a member of the congregation of St. Luke's Episcopal Church at Prescott since the early 1940s and served the church for a number of years as a vestryman. He was a long time member of the Smoki People and the Elks Club of Prescott.
