William Koon

May 22, 1971 — October 24, 2019

On Thursday, October 24th, William "Billy" Edward Koon, age 48, beloved son, brother and uncle passed away in his Columbus home.

Billy was born in Columbus, Ohio on May 22, 1971 to James and Dorothy (Bonnell) Koon. He was preceded in death by his father, James and brothers Dennis and Donnie.

He is survived by his mother, Dorothy Koon; brothers James (Leilani) Bonnell and Kennith "Kenny" (Dani) Koon; nieces Alexandra (Jeff), Cassandra (Adam), Danielle, Kylie, Kaelyn, Kendall, and Kambrey; and nephews Kennith "Little Kenny" (Morgan) and Tiny. Great Nieces and nephews Mikinzi, Peyton, Liam, Madison, Izabella, Kennith III, and Leighland. He is also survived by his best friends Tim, Tom, Doc, and Davey among many others.

Billy is remembered fondly by all that knew him as one of the kindest and most generous people that they'd ever met. Billy was a selfless and caring person, always putting others needs before his own, he brought nothing but joy and happiness to others. If you needed help with anything, Bill was there with a smile on his face, always the hardest worker in the room, and never did you hear a complaint. He always put family first, and he had a very special bond with all of his nieces and nephews, family was the most important thing to him.

Billy was a caretaker for his mother, he doted on and cherished her, he always made sure that all of the little things were done for her. He also took care of all of his nieces and nephews over the years, always remaining their favorite uncle and bestest buddy. His ability to walk into a room and light it up was extraordinary. When Bill talked with you, you were always the most important person in the room. He was always happy and his life had a positive impact on everyone he knew.

Billy loved to ride his bike everywhere, he was a huge Ohio State Fan, and he never missed an episode of "The Walking Dead". If there was water around, Billy was in it.

Billy's death comes as a shock to everyone that knew him, as he was loved by everyone. We know he is waiting on us at those gates, and we look forward to seeing him again. We love you "Uncle Billy".
