Bill was the coolest guy! His dry humor was just spot on. He knew
all sorts of stuff and was known by all of Tybee! He could talk to
everyone from a two-year-old to a bad ass Harley Davidson rider. He
really lived a great life with his wife, Rose, and if you didn’t know Bill
and Rose, you really aren’t Tybee! If you saw one, you saw the other
and they were everywhere! From Poos to Tybee Time to the Wind
Rose to all over the island. Bill loved Tybee and after living 20 plus
years here, he’s earned his spot in Tybee history. He so wanted to live
to see 90. Unfortunately, he missed it by a few months.
To celebrate this man’s life, Rose has orchestrated a carnival/fair
style wake at Tybee’s American Legion on Saturday, October 10th.
Technically, he would have turned 90 the day before, but I think he
would appreciate the day later dollar short irony of it all. Here is the
plan:
On the 10th between 4 P.M. and 7 P.M., the Legion is going to
be turned into a fair! There will be a Corn Hole Tournament, Bozo
Buckets, Yahtzee, Pick a Ducky, a Fortune Teller, a Fashion Show, a
Congo Line and so much more silly fun that Bill would have absolutely
loved! At fair prices, there will be fair style food of hot dogs, meatballs
on a stick, chicken waffles, corn on the cob and the cash bar will be
open! Eric Thomas will be the Head Carnie and is going to be a fun
time for both kids and adults.
It’s open to one and all! There is a charge for the games and food
and all of those proceeds are going directly to our Tybee Legion. Bill
loved the Tybee Legion and having served in the Korean War; the
Legion was a big part of his family.
Let’s have a great time celebrating Bill’s life!
