William Shine Obituary

William "Wild Bill" Shine went home to hang out with the Lord on Thursday, May 5, 2016. Memorials: In lieu of flowers or donations, please take time to talk to a stranger, call an old friend or smile to make someone's day. That is what Bill would be doing right now if he was here. We can all hear him saying, as he did every time he would leave our gatherings, "Love you with all my heart!" Bill always looked forward to spending time with his kids, Crystal, Jenrette and Robert, and his grandkids, Ruby, Nicholas, Cameron and Brandon. He loved baseball, fishing, hunting, chasing women and making friends everywhere he went. One of his greatest accomplishments was graduating top of his nursing class. His passion and commitment to helping others was second to none. Bill was the best storyteller and embellisher to ever live. With him the fish were always bigger, the storms always mightier and the women always prettier than anyone had ever seen.
