Mr. Spigner was a veteran of the Vietnam War and a member of the Veterans of Foreign War and The American Legion. He was a member of Cherry Ridge Baptist Church. His memories will be cherished by family and friends. He was known as "King of the Grill". There was a time when you said "Load Up" and he would beat you to the car. Bill loved the outdoors, cooking, camping, campfires, riding around looking for what we haven't figured out yet, sitting for hours visiting with his family and friends. He was very supportive and involved with his family. He loved the laughter and noise of kids playing and of course calling on Uncle Bill. His time and many memories will be treasured and missed by many. Mr. Spigner is preceded in death by his grandparents, Mr. & Mrs. James E. Gandy and Mr. & Mrs. George Spigner.
