BILL HOLLINGSWORTH

Plantersville- William “Bill” Aaron Hollingsworth, age 74, passed away peacefully on Saturday, August 2, 2025. Born on October 20, 1950, to Eunice and Wilburn Hollingsworth, Bill lived a life full of heart, laughter, and deep connections with those he loved most.

Bill had a natural gift for bringing people together. With a twinkle in his eye and a joke always at the ready, he could light up any room he walked into. His playful nature and quick wit were trademarks that endeared him to family, friends, and even strangers who quickly became friends.

Family was the heart of Bill’s world. Whether he was hosting backyard cookouts, teasing the grandkids with his signature one-liners, or simply spending quiet time with loved ones, he showed his devotion through presence, warmth, and unshakable love. He believed in making memories over material things, and his greatest joy came from shared laughter and time spent together.

Though he served his country proudly in the U.S. Navy and later ran a successful business, those who knew Bill best will remember not titles or accomplishments, but the way he made people feel—valued, seen, and loved. His legacy lives on in the joy he spread, the bonds he built, and the stories his family will tell for generations.

Bill was a loving father, loyal friend, and the kind of man who never let you leave without a smile. His absence leaves a hole that cannot be filled, but his spirit will forever echo in the laughter around the dinner table and the warmth of every family gathering.

He is survived by his son, Alex Hollingsworth; grandchildren, Jacie Best, AJ Best, Addison Pardee, Lilly Pardee, Mindy Carpenter, Kevin Carpenter, and Oz Carpenter; sisters, Betty Catt and husband, Jim, and Linda Scidmore; and dear life partner, Nevedia Hollingsworth.

He was preceded in death by his parents.
