A TIME TO BE BORN

William Frederick Bevan was born on September 18, 1952 in Waynesboro GA. He is the first born of the late Frederick Edward Bevan of Highpoint NC, and Rosemary Kennedy of Augusta GA.

A TIME TO LIVE

In 1960 Bill moved to Ridgeland SC and grew up in Davant Plantation majority of his life. During the summers as a child, Bill would go and visit Saskatchewan Canada along with his siblings David and Cindi where his father Fred would raise dogs. In 1970 Bill graduated from Ridgeland High School. Later on he graduated from University of South Carolina in 1976 majoring in Spanish and Latin studies. In 1978 he moved to Statesboro GA, where he was married and had two boys. Eventually, Bill went back to college in Beaufort SC to receive his HVAC certification in 1992. He worked for Dean Custom Air from 1992-2004.

A TIME TO DIE

Prior to being ill, Bill lost his right leg in 2014 due to infection, even then he was still very independent and up and about.
