William Lee "Bill" Meeks, 70, passed away on May 28, 2015. He was a great worker and asset to the Lord. Bill was a dual member of the Valley Station Church of God pastored by Danny Morris and the Lighthouse of Prayer in Borden, IN, pastored by Ed Jordan. He was a skilled craftsman and carpenter. Bill loved working with his hands, building models, painting, fishing, reading, going to the ocean and hasn't missed a tractor pull at the Meade County Fair.
