William 'Billy' Estridge was called home to be with the Lord on Friday, March 20, 2026, surrounded by his loving family. He is survived by his mother, Marlene Estridge; his brother, Butch Estridge (Nancy); his daughters, Michelle and Rachel; his grandchildren, Cody and Adam; as well as a nephew, Dallas, a niece, Janna (Hunter), and a great great niece, Kaya, and many cousins.

He was preceded in death by his father, Marvin Estridge, and his son, William Allen Estridge. Billy will be remembered for his strength during his battle with cancer, his quick-witted humor, and his passion for playing guitar and singing. He is now at peace in the arms of his Savior.

A service to celebrate his life will be held at 11:00 AM on Saturday, April 11, 2026, at Folly Beach Baptist Church. The family will greet friends immediately following the service in the Fellowship Hall.

Memorial contributions may be made to Folly Beach Baptist Church, 77 Center Street, Folly Beach, SC 29439.
