William H. Mayfield, born March 26, 1944, joined his Lord and Savior December 29, 2019, at DCH Medical Center, surrounded by his family. William is survived by his wife Terri Jackson Mayfield and son Cameron Mayfield. William was preceded in death by his Father Elihue Mayfield, Mother Ida Mayfield, brothers Alsey and Donald Mayfield, sister Mary Mayfield McCray, and special nephews Earl Mayfield and Ed Mayfield.
William owned and operated his petroleum business, Mayfield Oil Co., Inc., for 43 years before retiring. He respected the members of our team and was always there when they needed him. He commented many times he hoped their days would be as good as his. He was an avid hunter and enjoyed fishing tournaments with friends. He also became interested in the beef cattle industry, and through it, gained wonderful friends. He shared many phone calls with his cattle friends on any given night. William sat on the board of The Peoples Bank for many years, served on the Utilities Board of Brent, held positions with the Alabama Simmental Cattle Association, as well as the Bibb County Cattlemen’s Association.
William loved his wife and son, and most of all loved his Lord and Savior. For that, we are so thankful and blessed.
