William Poole Obituary
William, Billy, as he was known to family and friends, loved his wife dearly with their two fur babies, Little Bit and Culley at their home in the Quito Community. He was employed at HumKo and retired from Quikrete. Billy liked to turn on Lynyrd Skynyrd in his Can Am and ride the backroads visiting those he loved. Also, on a nice day you could find Billy and Judy working in the front yard, planting flowers, bird watching, or firing up the grill.
He is preceded in death by his parents; Trenton and Elvi Cobb Poole, 3 brothers; Jimmy Poole, Tommy Poole, and Donald Poole.
Billy is survived by his wife; Judith Merryman Poole, they have been together for the past 13 years and married for the past 2 of those years, brothers; Charles Poole (Wendi), Steve Poole (Diana), and Robert Poole (Jina), sister; Eunice "Elaine" Deal, stepchildren; Casey Merryman Williams and David Merryman, 3 step grandchildren; Lily Merryman, Lucy Herring, and Gus Herring.
In the words of his favorite band: Lynyrd Skynyrd - Simple Man ????
Oh, take your time, don't live too fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
You'll find a woman, yeah, and you'll find love
And don't forget son there is someone up above
And be a simple kind of man
Oh, be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can?
Billy will be missed but, he will continue to live in the hearts that loved him dearly.
A Celebration of Life gathering will be Friday, June 28, 2024, from 2pm until 4pm at VFW, Millington, 4681 Cuba Millington Rd. Millington, TN 38053.
