William T. "Bill" Kingston, Jr.
July 24th, 2025
WILLIAM T. “BILL” KINGSTON, JR., passed away July 24, 2025. He was preceded in death by his parents, Julie (Richard) Noel and William T. Kingston, Sr. (Joyce), and brother Robert Kingston.
Bill is survived by his wife, Kathleen; children Jill (Don) Gregoire, Mark (Roxanna) Kingston, Debbie (William) Kramer; step-children Michael (Wendy) Taylor, James (Chris) Taylor and Kris (Diana) Taylor; as well as many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He is further survived by his siblings: Susan Kingston, William Kingston 3rd, and Betty Wishowski; as well as many nieces, nephews, other relatives, and friends.
Bill joined the Army in 1964 and retired in 1994 with the Army National Guard. One of Bill’s proudest moments was when he assisted with the fire in the Custer Gallatin National Forest in 1988 along with the Wyoming National Guard.
Bill was a collector of many things. He enjoyed fishing, hunting, racing and just being outdoors with his great-grandkids. He especially enjoyed his many years with his wife, Kay, and they took many vacations together. Bill, and his many stories, will be missed.
