Bill Kennamer Obituary
Bill Kennamer, a man of many adventures and great stories, from a steam ship to Australia to driving an Australian Road Train across the Nullarbor Plains. His gifts include being able to spin a yarn and tell a great story, from cooking in a shovel to shooting doubles at the gun club. Bill was a proud father of four boys who grew into men. He has joined his beloved Margo in their next adventure.
Rest in Peace Bill / Dad,
you will be missed by all who knew and loved you.

For Carol and Paula ~ I remember when I was between 14 and 15 years old, Bill asked me to marry him. I said "No, not unless I was 50 years old and divorced or widowed." Then, when I was pregnant with Laura, I went to his wedding to Margo. I believe I have a picture of Wade and myself there. Wasn't it '79 when all eight of us were together at Paula's for Christmas? Good times! And there was a trip to Yosemite, if memory serves that some of us did together and perhaps a trip to the mountains for fun in the snow or to Lake Elizabeth that I have vague memories of.
My condolences for the loss of yet another wonderful brother, Paula and Carol dears...
