William C. Meade Jr.
William C. "Bill" Meade Jr., age 62, of Orange, passed away on July 14, 2024, at Yale New Haven Hospital. He was born in Bridgeport and was a lifelong area resident. He was a beloved husband, father, son, and grandfather, leaving behind a legacy of love and cherished memories.

Above all, Bill will be remembered for his kindness, generosity, and unwavering love for his family. He was predeceased by his father, William Meade; and survived by his mother, Patricia Meade, his devoted wife, Susan Meade, his loving children, William and Amanda Meade, and his adored grandchildren, Mac and Harper. He leaves behind a wide circle of friends and relatives, who cherished his friendship and admired his character.

So sorry to here of the loss of Billy. We played Pop Warner football together in Trumbull.
We took separate paths in high school when Billy went to St. Joes and I went to Fairfield Prep. He was always so upbeat and positive. May you rest in peace. Sending my sympathy to friends and the Meade family from Michael J. Magut + Family.

Billy was extremely well liked , and certainly had a life to celebrate. Although I haven't seen him in years, I'm impressed by the well deserved admiration from those who knew him. He was always fun to be around and I can picture how proud he was of his family.

Trumbull Times, 50 years ago today, July 18, 1974. Billy Meade: Trumbull Nationals photo on left, top row , 2nd player in from left. TN was led by Billy Meade and Danny Frye. They were the 2nd best team for TN other than the '89 LLWS champs. Billy's great behavior and spirit says everything about him! RIP Billy.
