William Edward Perkins, a.k.a. Bill, 64, of Jones, Oklahoma, passed away on April 4, 2026.

William was born on January 4, 1962, in Newton, Missouri, to Lovie and Talford Perkins. He was raised alongside his siblings, Talford, Linda, and Sandra.

Bill attended Western Canada High School in Calgary, Canada. He was proud to participate in wrestling and graduated with the Class of 1980.

Bill was known as a super hard worker and a man who loved his family fiercely. He leaves behind his beautiful wife, Jennifer Mai Perkins; his daughters, Danielle Mai Gulliver and Kaylynn Anna Marie Mechling; and his two beloved grandchildren, Zeppelin Anna Moon Mechling and Zephyr Cole Autry-Mechling.

Those who knew William will always remember the little things that made him so special. He found the most joy in Star Trek, tending to his flowers outside, and just being with his family. His loved ones will imagine him decorating Heaven for the Christmas and Halloween holiday, just the way he always loved, reunited with and playing once again with his two favorite girls in the world—his beloved dogs, Brandi and Peaches and standing in awe of the mountains in Ouray, Colorado

Bill’s love, presence, and the memories he created will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered.

You are my heart, you are my soul. You are my everything, forever and ever. Lub Lub Lub

Wish you were here.
