William Pollard Obituary
He was a strong and sensitive man who loved cooking, wood working, and playing his guitar. Bill was a wonderful husband and an amazing father. Family was everything to him, and he loved being a husband, dad, grandpa, uncle, brother, and son.
He was born on September 4, 1961 to William and Beatrice Pollard in Hamilton, Ohio and is preceded in death by his parents, sister Judy Pollard, father-in-law Lauro Hinojosa, and brother-in-law Saul Hinojosa.
Bill is survived by his devoted wife of 36 years, Norma Lisa Hinojosa Pollard, their two beautiful daughters Sarah Pollard and Hannah (Kevin Lince) Pollard, two beloved grandsons David William Yanez Pollard and August Gabriel Lince Pollard; sisters Melissa (Joe) Gustavus and Margaret Pollard; mother-in-law Raquel Hinojosa; nieces Tiffany (Reggie) Gay and Brittany Gustavus, nephews Jeremy and Duston Gustavus, Jacob, Marcus, and Simon Hinojosa; sister-in-law Laurah Hinojosa; and numerous aunts, uncles, nephews, nieces, and cousins.
Bill was under the care of Dr. Hussein Tawbi at MD Anderson, and Dr. Suresh Ratnam at Texas Oncology. He was so appreciative of them and their medical teams, who were always so caring, encouraging, and supportive.
A Celebration of Life Memorial Service will be held at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, April 19, 2022 at El Buen Pastor United Methodist Church, 705 E. University Drive in Edinburg.
