William Thomas Dashiell, known affectionately as Bill, passed away peacefully on July 16, 2024, at the age of 85 in Chapin, South Carolina. Born on December 6, 1938, in Fort Smith, Arkansas, Bill was a lifelong enthusiast of sports, particularly football, cheering fervently for his beloved Arkansas Razorbacks. His passion for sports also extended to the tennis courts and golf courses, which he enjoyed throughout his life.
Bill graduated from Little Rock Central High School in 1956 and went on to earn a degree from the University of Arkansas in 1962. He proudly served in the Army for 10 years, engaging in both active and reserve duties, a testament to his dedication and service to the country.
Professionally, Bill was a respected figure in the financial services industry, where he held the position of Regional Manager at Citicorp Financial Services in Atlanta, Georgia, and later at US West Financial Services in Overland Park, Kansas. His leadership and commitment to excellence left a lasting impact on his colleagues and the industry.
Bill was a devoted member of Cornerstone Presbyterian Church, PCA in Brevard, NC, where he was not only a regular attendee but also an active participant in church activities. His faith played a significant role in his life, guiding him in his daily actions and interactions with others.
He leaves behind his beloved wife, Pamela Bramhall Dashiell; sons, William Martin Dashiell "Marty" (Carol) and Richard Lee Dashiell (Kristin); grandchildren, Katelin Rodgers (Ethan), Addie Dietrich (Jordan), Emma Dashiell, and Drew Dashiell; and great-grandchildren, Oakley, Camryn, Taysom, and Nolan. Bill's generosity and love for his family were boundless, and he will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
A service to honor Bill's life and legacy will be held at 2:00 pm on Monday, July 29, 2024 at Cornerstone Presbyterian Church, PCA in Brevard, North Carolina. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to Habitat for Humanity, an organization Bill was deeply involved with and supported for many years, or to his church, reflecting his commitment to service and community. Bill's life was a testament to his values of faith, family, and community, and his memory will live on through the many lives he touched.
