Bill Breland

Mr. William Preston Breland, Jr., known as “Wild Bill”, 63, of Lodge, entered into eternal rest Tuesday, June 4, 2024, at his residence.

Born December 24, 1960, in Beaufort, South Carolina, he was a son of William Preston Breland, Sr. and Mary Loraine Rowell Breland.  Bill was an excellent carpenter who was the best cut man you could find. He loved fishing and had a green thumb that could grow any kind of flower or vegetable that he wanted.  He was a member of Bethel United Methodist Church in Ruffin and was an Eagle Scout.  Most of all, Bill had a heart of gold and dearly loved his family and friends.
