William Gresham Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Harold was known for his love of older muscle cars namely Chevrolets. On the other hand, he also had a passion for Honda Dream Motorcycles. Go figure!
He shared his passion for auto mechanics with those that wanted to learn. He also loved fishing or "drowning a worm" as he called it.
Harold will forever be
loved and held in memories by his wife, Karen Weathersbee Gresham, son, William "Billy" Gresham II (Dawn), daughter, Penny Elaine Jordan - Gresham (Krystie), and grandchildren Matthew Gresham (Taylor Seigler), Jamie Randall (Amber), Maegan Karrasch (John), Tommy Gresham (Hope), Emily "Emmie" Gresham, Jordan Lowrimore, and Mikaela Bentley, nine great grandchildren as well other relatives and friends.
Harold was the son of the late Willie Earnest Gresham and survived by his mother Frances Bryan Gresham, siblings, Sylvia Gresham Brown, Marie Gresham Burroughs (Robbie), Angela Gresham Barton (Wayne), Micheal Gresham (Bonnie), and Mark Gresham (Richard).
He was known by many names, Harold, Honey by his wife, Daddy by his children, Poppee by his grandchildren and great grandchildren, Bubba by his siblings, and Unca by his niece. For those that knew him, he will be forever etched in all of our memories as one of the greatest men that we have ever had the privilege of having in our lives.
The family will greet friends on Monday, April 14, 2025, at 1 o'clock at Hatcher Funeral Home & Cremation Service, 3464 Jefferson Davis Highway, Graniteville, SC.

There are no words to describe the heartbreak I feel for his family.
In our childhood we were two kids that walked the same road to school. Later in life( not too much later) he became my cousin-in-law when he married my cousin Karen. The memories are too numerous and so are the stories. He shared the same love of cars as my brother as well as the same type motorcycle. They both left this world too soon for us, but the Lord knows why & when. Karen, I can´t even imagine what you´re going through! With all my heart, Love & prayers!
