Born in Glendale California and raised in Georgia and Tennessee, Billy spent a few years in the Navy as a teenager and later worked as a heating, air conditioning and refrigeration mechanic. He had a natural mechanical ability that started as a boy with bicycles and lawn mower repairs and eventually led to cars and motorcycles. His true love was being outdoors fishing, hunting, and growing an amazing garden when time allowed. He was also very artistic with his copper, jewelry, and airplane creations.
He is survived by his ex-wife Tamela Bennett, son William Allen (Ruth Anna), step daughter MacKenzie, 2 granddaughters Katrina Rei and Hadassah Ruomi Shosahnna, his mother Lillie Mae Bennett, his siblings Lori Kemp (Scott), Timothy Bennett (Debra), Phillip "Marty" Bennett (Farrah), Dawn Lesueur (Eric), nieces and nephews Christopher Bennett, Julie Bennett, Will Kemp, Kaiti Kemp, Torie Lord, Justin West, Dallas Bennett, Daniel Bennett, Annalise Milas, Nicholas St. Clair, Alyssa Lesueur, and Andrew Lesueur. He is preceded in death by his father William Elmer Bennett Sr and his brother Daniel Ray Bennett.
Donations can be made to help with funeral costs in lieu of flowers.
