William “Bill” Jackson Robinson, 87, passed away on Monday, January 15, 2024, at his residence in Louisville, Mississippi, surrounded by his loving family. Funeral services will be 12 p.m. Friday, January 19, in the Nowell-Massey Funeral Home Chapel with Reverend Trent Jaudon officiating. Visitation will be the day of the service at the funeral home from 10:30 a.m. until service time. Interment will immediately follow the service in Louisville Memorial Cemetery. Bill was born February 17, 1936, to Elmer and Annie Roberts Robinson in Meridian, Mississippi. He was an active member of South Louisville Baptist Church. Bill relocated his family to Louisville where he served as plant manager of the Georgia-Pacific Plywood Plant. Later, they moved to Crossett, Arkansas, where he served as regional manager of several plywood plants. He enjoyed traveling all over the United States with his wife; playing golf; and bowling, eventually joining a Bowling League. Bill was an outdoorsman who enjoyed hunting, fishing, and working in his yard; but most of all, he enjoyed spending time with his family—especially his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Bill is survived by his daughters: Shirley Sanders and husband, Mitch, of Louisville; Judy Gainey and husband, John, of Ocala, Florida; Susan Daniel of Madison, Mississippi; Karen Adcock and husband, Kevin, of Louisville; and Tammy Rademacher and husband, Erik, of Madison. One of his greatest joys was being “PaPaw Bill” to his grandchildren: Brian Sanders (Laura); Lisa Algarin (Alex); Sherry Swilley; Jason Quinn; Jennifer Dunn; Eric Adcock (Cortney); Kayla Richards (Josh); Madison Rademacher; and Bailey Rademacher; as well as his 14 great-grandchildren: Cade Sanders; Lydia Sanders; Cooper Sanders; Macie; Hunter; Olivia Mariano; Colby Quinn; Reid Dunn; Samuel Quinn, Walt Adcock, Leighton Adcock, Presleigh Richards; Harper Richards; and Jett Moudy. He is also survived by numerous loving nieces, nephews, other family members, and friends. Bill is preceded in death by his wife of 64 years, Minnie L. Robinson; three grandchildren: Mark William Swilley; Clifton Elliot Sanders; and Brittany Nicole Adcock; his parents; and his siblings: Bob Robinson, James Robinson, Billy Robinson, Jimmy Robinson, and Willa Mae Pogue. Serving as pallbearers are Brian Sanders, Jason Quinn, Eric Adcock, Josh Richards, Bailey Rademacher, Rusty Suttle, and Bennett Wilson. Honorary pallbearers are Buddy Rogers, Charles Henry Stokes, and Lowell Wilson. Memorial contributions in honor of Bill may be given to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital online at stjude.org.
