William David Conlin

William (Bill) David Conlin, age 84, of Canton, Georgia passed away on Thursday, November 16, 2023. Bill was born September 17, 1939 to Madeline Ash Conlin and William Arthur Conlin and grew up in Union, NJ. He was a loving and devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend.

Bill had a great sense of humor, and any room he walked into immediately became THE place to laugh. . . a Lot! . . . and Loudly! He loved his family “to the moon and back!” Bill enjoyed traveling, golf, boating, fishing and was a big history buff (trips to a museum were all day affairs). Bill and Lorraine traveled the world together, and he should have been a paid advertiser for the US National Parks and Alaska Cruise Lines, which he seemed to work into any conversation😊. He also loved telling stories about growing up on his aunt and uncle’s farm in New Jersey - yes, NJ has farms!!😊. He worked at Prudential of over 30 years and still stayed in regular contact with many of his friends from Pru and with his high school buddies. Bill and Lorraine lived in NJ, GA, and FL, and he loved watching the Georgia Bulldogs, his Tampa Bay Lightning, and his grandkids sporting events. Bill will be loved and missed by all that knew him.

Bill is survived by his sons Bill Conlin, Tom Conlin, sister Ruth Murphy (Bill), granddaughters Kelly Clark (Ben), Michelle Stevens (Ken), great granddaughters Brittany Cash Walker, Kinley Stevens, Mariella Stevens, great grandson Brantley Clark, great great-grandsons Kayson Walker and Kaiden Walker.

Bill was preceded in death by his wife Lorraine, parents William and Madeline Conlin, daughter-in-law Mary Conlin, and great grandson Braylen Weems.
