William C. McCune

June 8,1931 - February 7, 2015

William C. "Bill" McCune, passed peacefully at home, into the arms of Jesus, Saturday, February 7, 2015.

He was born in Fountain, Colorado to George F. and Irene Meredith McCune. The eldest of eleven

children. He grew up in the Woodland Park area, and at the age of sixteen his family moved to the Grand

Valley, where he graduated from Central High School in 1950.

He married the love of his life, and best friend, Naomia O. "Dolly" Gibson on March 17, 1951.

He was inducted into the U.S. Army in July of 1951, serving active duty during the Korean conflict, and an

additional 22 years in the Army National Guard. He retired from the Military in 1974.

Bill worked for Sperber Construction for over thirty years, and became owner operator of Bill McCune

Construction, working even into his eighties. He was a true master of the art of finish carpentry, a

perfectionist, he took pride in all that he built.

Bill was very active in church throughout his life. Serving as a worship leader, board member, donating

countless hours to God's work, building, and repairing churches. Most recently a greeter, at Victory Life

Church.

Some of his favorite times were spent water skiing, and boating, in earlier years. Four wheeling, through

the Colorado Mountains, reading all types of books, singing, and fishing with his boys, and grandchildren.

And, most importantly, sharing the love of the Lord. His generosity, and kindness, will be greatly missed.
