Billy Doyle Ingram

Billy Doyle Ingram, affectionately known as "Papaw Bill", passed away after a short illness at his home surrounded by family members on December 17, 2025. Bill was born in Cleveland, TN to the late William Clifford Ingram and Lola Pauline Ingram on July 20, 1942.

Bill is what his family recalls as being "Everything". He loved traveling, especially to warm places, and he even enjoyed a little bit of farm life in his earlier years. He served in the United States Army and later became a master carpenter for many years.

Bill is survived by his loving wife, Eva Ingram; daughters, Kristie (Paige) Baldwin and Kelleye (Stephen) Douglas along with his very special 4 legged-little girl, Zoey May Ingram; grandchildren, Chelsea (Dustin) Cross, Ryleigh Humphrey, Zack Davis, and Jacob Davis; great-grandchildren, Joshlynn, Brookelynn, Jaxon, Ellie, Marley, Lucy, Nate, and Phoebe; brothers, David (Debbie) Ingram and Jeff Ingram; sisters, Virginia Burgner, Wanda Hedger, Rita Ingram and Karen (John) Thomas; sister-in-law, Garion Armer; brother-in-law, David (Naomi) Dickerson; along with a host of other family members and loved ones.

The family will have a private family memorial service at a later date to honor Bill.
