William MacNeill Obituary

 

William T. MacNeill, 63, of Burrillville (Pascoag) passed away at home on May 16, 2024. He was the son of the late Jeanette (Query) MacNeill and Wilfred MacNeill. 

Bill grew up in Brighton, MA eventually moving to California. He then moved back to Massachusetts living in Lunenburg with his daughter, Ashley. He held several jobs as a printer, debt collector and several other collections jobs for a lawyer and banks. Bill (also known lovingly by his wife as “Cakies”) was currently living in Pascoag, RI on the lake with his wife, Esther, of 16 years. He was an avid lover of water where he spent much time growing up at his parent’s summer home on Lake Shirley. He loved to go boating, tinker with fixing old motors, ride his motorcycle and spend time with friends and loved ones. Bill always took the time to help others and was a selfless, caring and dedicated man who will be dearly missed “289.”

Besides his wife, Esther Camerota-MacNeill, he is survived by his daughter, Ashley MacNeill, whom he loved very much with his whole heart and being, three siblings, many other relatives, four dogs and two cats.
