OBITUARY
Tuscaloosa News; 23 February 2012
TUSCALOOSA William R. "Bill" Gresham, age 63, of Tuscaloosa, departed for his heavenly home Tuesday, Feb. 21, 2012, at DCH Regional Medical Center after an extended illness. Services will be 1 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 26, 2012, at Memory Chapel Funeral Home with the Rev. Deacon Roland Ficken officiating. Burial will follow in Memory Hill Gardens with Memory Chapel Funeral Home, a Dignity Memorial Provider, directing. Visitation will be Saturday night from 5 to 7 p.m. at the funeral home.
Bill was preceded in death by his parents, Richard and Martha Gresham.
Those left to cherish his memory include his wife, Julie; stepson, Tim Jones; stepdaughter, Lynne Ellington (Roger); sister, Patricia Bleicher; brothers, James Gresham (Dee) and Tom Gresham (Karen); other relatives, Beth Bleicher Hansom (Paul), David Bleicher (Donna), Scott Gresham, Jared Gresham, and his namesake Jonah William Gresham; as well as numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins on the Yow and Gresham side of the family.
A 1966 graduate of Tuscaloosa High School, Bill proudly served his country in Vietnam aboard the USS Robert Craig and the USS Albert David. Upon his return, he graduated from the University of Alabama. Before illness forced his retirement, he worked for Sealy Maintenance for many years.
Bill loved fishing, Alabama football, cooking, and any project involving power tools. Helping others was his ministry, and this often took the form of homemade bread, cookies, and Eggplant Gresham.
Pallbearers will be Tim Jones, Roger Ellington, Emmett Ray, Jared Gresham, David Thomas, Robert Peterson, Scott Gresham, and David Bleicher.
Honorary pallbearers are Dr. Christopher Jordan, Dr. Melanie Graham, and the entire staff at the DCH Cancer Center; the staff of Randall-Reilly Publishing Company; Sealy Realty; and Dr. Michael McCracken.
The family also wants to recognize all those who offered their prayers and assistance as Bill arduously fought his courageous battle with cancer. We also want to thank Dr. Phillip Bobo as well as all Bill's friends at the clubhouse on River Road.
"I will say unto the Lord, thou art my hope and my stronghold; my God, in Him will I trust." Psalm 91:2.
