William Herbert Metcalfe

William is survived by his son, Tony R. Metcalfe (Sandra Knowles); daughters, Della Metcalfe Skeeters (Tim), and Crystal Metcalfe (Steve); grandchildren, Tony Joe Metcalfe, April Metcalfe, Chris McCubbins, Jonathan McCubbins, Dustin Skeeters, Joey Banet, Shanna Lockwood, Cheryl Webb; and several great great grandchildren.

He is preceded in death by his wife of 69 years, Imolene B. Metcalfe; grandson, Corey L. Gardner.

William served with honor in the United States Marine Corps. After his military career, William joined Henry Vogt Machine Co., where he devotedly invested over 40 years of his life.

Life outside the workplace found William deeply involved in his community and church. As a devout Baptist, he lived his faith, not just within the walls of the church but also through his everyday actions and interactions. He believed in spreading kindness, offering support, and serving others—a living embodiment of his values.

A visitation will be held at Hardy-Close Funeral Home 285 S. Buckman Street Shepherdsville, Kentucky 40165 on Friday, January 30, 2026 from 2PM to 3PM.
