William Joseph Auth Jr.

Age 62, of Plum Borough, passed away unexpectedly and is reunited with his father, William, and leaves behind a legacy that will live on in the hearts of all who knew him. He is survived by his mother, Virginia and his beloved wife, Shelly Farren, who stood by his side through life's joys and challenges. The love they shared was deep, steady, and undeniable. Billy will never be forgotten by his children: Dylan Henderson, Leah Henderson, Keegan Auth (Ciara), and Xander Auth (Abby). He was the proud and adoring Pap Pap to his beautiful granddaughters, Rosealena, Calliope, and Isla, and his grandson, Ace. Being a grandfather was one of his greatest joys in life he wore that title with pride, love, and endless smiles. He is also survived by his brother, Ryan Auth (Stacey), his sisters, Amy Senge (Tab), Meghan Donatelli (Rich) and many cherished nieces and nephews who will carry his memory forward. Billy "King Bill" was a man of family, friendship, and heart. He brought people together the way he knew best with good food, deep conversation, and love poured into every moment, always wrapped in humor. His goofy spirit could lighten any room, and his laughter will echo in the memories of those who loved him. To know him was truly to love him. Though our hearts ache in his absence, we take comfort in knowing he is now at peace and reunited with his father. His love remains woven into our lives, and we trust that one day we will see him again. Until then, we carry his light forward as he is deeply missed, forever loved, and truly irreplaceable.
