William Lemenager Obituary

In loving memory of William "Bill" Lemenager, born on April 30, 1959, and passed away on May 4, 2025.

Bill was born and raised in Sutter, CA. He farmed rice for many years before going to work for the Sutter County Water Agency. He retired in 2021, and moved to Riverton, WY.

A devoted family man, Bill cherished his loved ones and always put them first.

He had a deep passion for hunting and fishing, and was a talented mechanic, fabricator, and inventor.

There was nothing Bill couldn't fix, build, or create.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Steve and Virginia "Jenny."

Bill is survived by his beloved wife, Betty; his brother, David; his sisters, DJuana and LaVetta; his nephew, Derik; his children, Casey, Lani, Charlett, Joe, Merle, and Kim; his grandchildren, Zachary and Jaime; and his great-grandchildren, Kaia, Kaylee, and Joey.

Bill will be deeply missed and forever in our hearts.
