William Bramlett

Well my brother Bill, it will be 11 years tomorrow and the pain is still there. I came to believe that even though we didn't want you to leave, that it is all in God's timing, not ours. It doesn't stop me from missing your texts, your phone calls and your visits. I know that we will see each other one day. That gives me so much joy that we will all be together as a family again. Until then, save me a seat. I love and miss you so much! Lois Anne, aka Brat

Today my brother will be laid to rest. I am humbled by all the thoughts prayers gifts of food, donations, etc that have been shown to my family. I am also humbled by the Patriotism that is shown by the Patriot Guard Riders and the Marine Corp League. I burst with pride when I saw the flags and the Patriot Guard Riders standing guard at the funeral home yesterday. Bill touched so many lives in his 60 years of life. He never met a stranger and would have given you the shirt off of his...

I'm so sad to hear this news! Prayers for his Family in this difficult time!

RIP my friend.

I did not know you well, nor did I know you for long. But I knew you as a Brother Veteran and Patriot. There are so few left today, and America has indeed lost another good one. Condolences and prayers for all.

Thank you Marine Bill for your service to our God, Our Country & Corps.
God Bless you.
Rest in eternal peace my Marine brother.

And as the last verse of the Marines Hymn says, , ,
“If the Army and the Navy ever look on Heaven's scenes,they will find the streets are guarded by United States Marines”

SAEPIUS EXERTUS = OFTEN TESTED,
SEMPER FIDELIS = ALWAYS FAITHFUL,
FRATER INFINITAS = BROTHERS FOREVER

I've ridden several missions with the MS Patriot Guard and have probably met Bill although I'm not sure but if we did meet I know I would've spoken to him because I too served in the USMC and would've greeted him with a "SEMPER FI MARINE". I'm sure since Bill has received his final orders he is now at his new duty station in Heaven. Rest in peace Marine. OORAH!

I'm sorry for your loss. May God give you and your family peace in your time of sorrow.
