William “Bill” Cochran, Sr., age 70, of Mount Gilead, died Friday morning, November 6, 2009, at the Marion General Hospital following a courageous battle against cancer.
On July 22, 1939, Bill was born in Pikeville, Kentucky, the son of the late Millard and Cynthia (Little) Cochran.
For over thirty years, Bill worked as a welder for the Marion Power Shovel, and more recently Marion Dresser. Very skilled at his trade, he was able to fabricate nearly anything you would want him to build.
An outdoorsman, Bill loved to be fishing and camping on Lake Erie, especially when he had his large RV. Also, he was a Harley motorcycle enthusiast.
Always welcoming you with a smile, Bill loved to be with his family and friends and trying to get a good laugh out of them.
Bill will be dearly missed by his wife, Judy (Deal) Cochran, of Mount Gilead, whom he married on July 22, 1999; two sons: William “Bill” Cochran Jr., of Mount Gilead, and Michael Cochran of Marion; a daughter, Rose, of Marion; two grandchildren; one brother, Birges Cochran; and two sisters: Ella Lester, and Sara Grey.
Including his parents, Bill was preceded in death by his son, Alvin Cochran; four brothers; and five sisters.
Per Bill’s request, services will not be observed.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Snyder Funeral Homes of Mount Gilead.
Memorial contributions may be made to his family.
