In loving memory of
William D. Powers
September 12, 1956 - May 6, 2023
William "Bill" D. Powers, on May 6, 2023, of Bellmawr. Age 66. Beloved son of the late John and Alice Powers (nee Brown). Devoted husband of Kathy Powers (nee Polizzano) for 44 years. Loving father of Missy Cooper (Bob), Richie Powers (Jacqueline), Lorie Simonelli (Mike), Billy Powers, Jayson Powers and Jayla Powers. Dear Pop-Pop of Zach, Katie, Nicky, Mikey, Billy, Gavin, Sophia and the late Sami girl. Great Pop-Pop of Waylon. Brother of Richard Powers and the late Johnny Powers and Joyce Powers. Also survived by his niece, Alicia Powers and many loving friends.
Bill was a devoted Dallas Cowboys fan. Bill enjoyed fishing with his Dad and two brothers, Johnny and Richard on the boat, the Alicia II. He loved asking everyone "Did I tell you about that fish I caught" ? Bill coached baseball for both of his sons teams and enjoyed his many family vacations to Walt Disney World. Prior to the Red Cross, Bill worked for LaFrance Corporation for +24 years. He was a hard working, family man who would give you his last dollar if you needed it. Every one of his grandkids will tell you that he was the best Pop Pop ever ! A title he wore proudly on his cheesy t-shirts. Bill will be missed but his stories, jokes, and songs will live on forever!
