William Henry Luckey Jr. passed away on September 19, 2025 at the age of 75. Billy was a Miami native who attended Miami High School and the University of Florida. He loved boating, fishing and snorkeling in Biscayne Bay. In the 1950's he would hunt with his father for quail and rabbit in what is now Cutler Ridge. Above all, he loved sitting by a fire with a cold beer and pizza. Billy was predeceased by his parents and an older sister, Mary Shinick, and is survived by his two sisters, Betsy Warwick of Miami and Laurel Luckey of Virginia, as well as numerous cousins, nieces and nephews. Billy was dearly loved by his family and we will miss him terribly. A graveside service will be held at Woodlawn North Cemetery on Monday, September 29, 2025 at 11:00 a.m.
