Billy Joe HartwellJanuary 12, 1939 – June 20, 2020
Bill moved peacefully to his heavenly home from Marquis Marian Estates Saturday, June 20, 2020 at the age of 81. Bill was born January 12, 1939 at Elk, New Mexico to William Lesley and Nonar Mae (Hamby) Hartwell.
Bill married Jean (Buck) Hartwell, February 14, 1970 in Salem, Oregon. It was important to him to celebrate our 50th Wedding Anniversary and his wish was granted. Bill graduated from Chemeketa Community College. But his love of being a mechanic found him in his Dallas Auto Repair shop until he retired in 2005.
Bill is survived by his wife, Jean, two sons, Mark (Gil), Scott (Jessie), one daughter, Danna (Mark) and close friends Rob (Stephanie); siblings, LaVerne Golden, Barron Hartwell, Doyle Hartwell, Jerry Hartwell and Sharon Norton. He has nine grandchildren and five great grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents, William Lesley and Nonar Mae Hartwell, Sister Wanda Lee Robbins, Brother Bobby Dale Hartwell and one great niece.
Bill enjoyed attending church until his health begin to decline. He especially enjoyed our Schipperke, Lexi and other family pets. He looked forward to exercising at the Courthouse and having coffee with his friends.
