A Cowboy Passes


Count Sandor, SASS #74075

Recommended Posts

I'm sad to report that long-time cowboy, Fillmore (aka. William "Bill" Fillman), passed away early this morning after a long battle with illness. Those of you who knew Fillmore  know that he was a fast shooter and a tough competitor who would push and scrap to come out on top, but at the same time would offer good advice, loan guns, and quite literally give the shirt off his back to anyone who was in need. Fillmore truly lived "the cowboy way" in every sense of those words, and I am proud to have had the honor of knowing and working with  him.

 

Services will be this Saturday, January 12, at Wise Family Funeral Hone in Avon, Illinois. Visitation will be at 9:00 AM, with services at 10:30. An online obituary should be available later this week at the link below.

Fillmore was a great cowboy. As two brand new shooters he was always patient with us, and explained better ways to get through a stage. We really missed seeing him this past year. Learned as much from watching him shoot as we did talking with him.

RIP Fillmore.

Fillmore was quite a guy. To look at him you wouldn't think that he could make it from the loading table to the firing line. But at the beep, he was as fast as a 20 yr. old. He will be missed.

RIP Fillmore. Condolences to his family and friends. A very nice and knowledgeable man. He and his green golf cart will be sorely missed.
