In 2013, the Amherst Ramblers retired his number 8 jersey during a pre-game ceremony.
Riley's son, Billy Jr., was killed in a motor vehicle accident in 2011 in Moncton at age 35.

Riley was given a tryout with the Washington Capitals during their inaugural season in 1974-75 and played in one game, but he spent most of his time in the minors, primarily with the Dayton Gems.
