Hillyer Thomas "Billy" Head, of Oxford, passed away Wednesday, May 27, 2020, at the age of 94. A proud veteran of the United States Navy who served during World War II, Mr. Head built his life on the disciplines he learned while serving his country. Stitched together with qualities such as dedication and strength of character, he knew the meaning of hard work and supported his family by raising cattle. After retiring, he spent his days doing something he loved – farming. Mr. Head was preceded in death by his wife, Peggy (Jackson) Head; as well as parents, Lewis and Anna (Broach) Head.
Mr. Head's memory will remain in the hearts of his daughter and son-in-law, Brenda and Billy Sorrow; sons and daughters-in-law, Steve and Connie Head, George and Linda Head; grandchildren, Shannon and Justin Mitchell, Kasey and Randall Gilreath, Jason Head, Jeremy and Missy Head, Josh and Tasha Head, Heath and Alisha Head; great-grandchildren, Kylie Sorrow, Emerson Gilreath, Mallory Head, Hunter Head, Michael Head, Kensley Head, Ryan Head, Grayson Head; and sister, Ann Smith.
A Graveside Service for Mr. Head will be held Friday, May 29, 2020, 2:00 P.M., at Lawnwood Memorial Park, 1111 Access Road, in Covington, with Pastor Lynn Head officiating. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to St Jude Research Hospital, 501 St. Jude Place, Memphis TN 38105, or by phone, 1-800-805-5856.
