Brother William D. Bell was born June 1, 1942, in Dallas County and was a resident of Mobile for over 46 Years.

He worked in construction for many years. He was an avid fisherman, cook and bowler at his leisure.

He began his Christian journey with baptism at an early age at the Franklin Street Church of Christ in Selma.

Even after his move to Mobile, he continued his faith by fellowshipping with Andrew Street Church of Christ, but became a faithful and loyal member of Southside Church of Christ.

He enjoyed leading the song service because singing was his passion.

He was preceded in death by his parents, James and Cecil Bell Carter; one sister, Minnie Lust; and brother in law, Jimmie Lust.

Those to forever cherish his loving memories include a devoted wife, Sarah Bell; two sons, William Bell Jr. and Zachary (Sharon) York; one daughter, Kim Bell; two brothers, James (Lucille) Bell and Cecil Bell; one sister, Unita (Minister Charles) Orr; a host of grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, very close friends; and his church family, South Side Church of Christ.
