Let me start by saying that the attached obituary is not trying to put William down. It is to be brutally honest and show the effects of drugs on people’s lives and their children.

As many people know, before Methamphetamine took ahold of William, he loved life. He used to be happy, fun, loving, passionate about hunting and fishing, and loved his friends and family. He would give the shirt off his back if you didn’t have one.

Once he met his last girlfriend and she got him addicted to Methamphetamine, his life would never be the same.

He was able to give up addiction once, but was not able to beat it the last time. Towards the end of his life, he had no food. It was family that helped to keep him fed. And for that, I honestly thank them.

Bridgett Bearden, if you are reading this, I hope one of these days, you are put so far away from your children, they never get to see you again. I hope they experience the pain that YOU have caused my children. You will never have the chance of being near or harming William ever again.
