William Lindsey Obituary
January 22, 1933 - April 8, 2025
William H. Lindsey, 92, passed away peacefully on April 8, 2025, in Richmond, VA. Born on January 22, 1933, also in Richmond, he led a life defined by service, faith, and dedication.

William, your faith in Jehovah was unwavering, and that brings me peace in this time of sorrow. I hold tight to the hope you believed in-the resurrection, where we´ll see you again in a world free of pain and tears.
You´re resting now in Jehovah´s memory, and until that day comes sleep in peace. Your cousin Alexa.
