Born in Ooltewah, Tennessee, on December 29, 1959. William graduated from Ooltewah High School, then barber college. He spent many years as a dedicated construction worker, and was well known in his community. William loved working on vehicles as a hobby, was a committed Dale Earnhardt fan, as well as a talented artist; but first, he was a father – dedicating his time, love, and guidance to his daughter.
William was preceded in death by his parents, Logan and Cornie Hindman; sister, Kaye; his brother, James "Peanut" Jr.; and his long-term partner, Shannon.
He is survived by his brothers; Michael and Dennis; and his daughter, Carlie.
William will be remembered for his kindness, his humor, and love for helping others. It was a gift to know him.
