William C. Mayfield, Sr., 69, of Victoria, passed away on January 1, 2020 in Victoria. William was born in Houston to Curtis C. and Jane Mayfield on August 1, 1950. He went to school in San Antonio and graduated from Robert E. Lee High School in 1968. He went to college for a year, but decided he needed to work and make money more, so he went to work. He worked mostly in oil field and pipelines until his children were grown, then he started driving trucks cross country and later locally until he was no longer able to work.
William married the love of his life, Marcia A. Himes, on January 21, 1978. They were true soul mates. They had two children together and remained happily married until her passing in 2007. He enjoyed and spent a lot of his spare time reading or spending time with family or friends. For the last few years he spent every Friday night with his friends for dinner and drinks at Rusty Jo’s.
