Trimmer Bill Wayne Pennington of Kissimmee, Florida, has died at age 84.
Bill was born on September 1, 1939 and raised in a US Navy family, which relocated to numerous cities throughout his childhood.
After his schooling, Bill learned the craft of auto upholstery. He eventually opened Bill’s Auto Glass and Upholstery, which he ran until his retirement.
“He was a greatly devoted husband, father, grandfather, and even great-grandfather. His family was his greatest source of pride,” his obituary says. “One of his most treasured traits was his sense of humor. He could take a joke, would rather dish them out. He loved to laugh.”
In his downtime, Bill enjoyed the outdoors, attended Eastern Avenue Baptist Church, and was a longtime member of Kissimmee Elks Lodge #1873.
He is survived by his wife of 62 years, Joann; sons, Kenny and Steve; five grandchildren, Chelsea, Austin, Paige, Steven and Steven; five, soon to be six, great-grandchildren; sisters, Cindy, Melinda and Jackie; brothers Mike and James; and four nephews.
May he Rest in Peace.
