William Wiley Wilemon was born in Sulphur Springs,TX on May 3, 1968 to Audrey Wilemon and Ellen Cockrum.  Willy enjoyed riding his bicycle around town and visiting with everyone he met along the way.  He was a regular at the Dinner Bell and really enjoyed having lunch with his friends.  He liked to play his stereo and tv on at the same time so loud it could be heard three states away.  He was a regular at the Dairy Queen and enjoyed hanging out at the Dollar Store and visiting with people.  He never met a stranger.  His best friend was his dog, Rider and you could often find them snuggled under a blanket watching TV.  He was embraced by the community and well loved.

Willy is survived by his father, Audrey Wilemon; brother, Milton Wilemon; nieces, Jennifer Jeter and Charisha Wilemon; host of friends.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Ellen Cockrum.
