On Monday Feb 23rd the family, friends & community celebrated the life of William Wesley Cude (2/20/42-2/17/26)
age 83, passed away peacefully sur-
rounded by the love of his family. A devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, and proud veteran, William lived a life rooted in faith, strength, and unwavering love for those closest to him.

William honorably served his country in the United States Air Force during the Vietnam era from 1960 to 1964. His service reflected the quiet courage, discipline, and sense of duty that remained with him throughout his life.

For over 50 years, William was a devoted servant of God who faithfully shared his love for the Lord with others. His strong faith guided the way he lived, the way he loved his family, and the way he treated those around him.

Above all else, William was a family man. He shared 43 wonderful years of marriage with his beloved wife, Gleniece. Together they built a life centered on commitment to the Lord, resilience, and unconditional love. His greatest pride was found in his family and the legacy that will continue through the generations.

He was preceded in death by his father, William Howard Cude; his mother, Dorothy Estelle Hill; and his beloved grandson, Jarrod Daniel Pruett.

William leaves behind his cherished wife, Gleniece Ann Cude; his children, Stephen Blake Pruett (Susan), Jeffrey Duane Pruett (Kim), Kimberly Rene
Smith, and William Howard Cude II (Terri). He was a proud grandfather to Kimberly Llacuna (Steven), Ryan McRae Jr., Amanda Muegge (Stephen), Stephanie Pruett, Jeffrey Pruett Jr. (Jessie), Joshua Pruett, Emberly
Cude, and Gennie Smith, and a loving great-grandfather to many great-grandchildren. William is also survived by his brothers, Eddie Cude (Bobbie), Steve Cude, and Mike Hill
(Dottie), along with numerous nieces and nephews, all of whom he loved very much.
