Obituary

Billy Elumbaugh passed away on February 6, 2026, surrounded by his family and enveloped in their love. He was born on May 12, 1946, in Marked Tree, Arkansas, to the late Arthur Elumbaugh and Bertha (McClung) Elumbaugh. Billy proudly served his country as a veteran of the United States Navy. Following his military service, he built a respected career as a Journeyman Pipefitter with Local Union 798, where he was known for his strong work ethic and dedication. Above all else, Billy loved his family immensely. He found his greatest joy in spending time with them, especially his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He had a lifelong passion for fishing and hunting and absolutely loved to dance. When the weather was nice, you could often find him at Toledo Bend Lake in Milam, Texas, fishing for catfish, crappie, and bass. Friday nights were often spent on the dance floor with his granddaughters, Kaydence and Paigelynne. When at home, he enjoyed reading a good book or relaxing while watching westerns or his favorite show, Judge Judy. Billy was preceded in death by his parents, Arthur and Bertha Elumbaugh; the love of his life, Vickie; his daughter, Kelly Kay Elumbaugh; his brothers, R.B., Chester, Arthur, Ray, and Jim Elumbaugh; and his sisters, May Harris, RosaLee Elumbaugh, Joyce Bush, Lois Tate, and Faye Branscum. He is survived by his son, Todd Elumbaugh; his granddaughter, Whitney (Dalton) Creekmore of Batesville; his grandson, Tommy (Holly) Reed of Iowa; his sister, Lavine Trowell of Conyers, Georgia; and his brother, J.S. Elumbaugh of Flint, Michigan. He is also survived by his great-grandchildren, Kaydence, Paigelynne, Braxley, Hazleigh, Kash, Kingston, and Kendrick, along with numerous nieces and nephews who loved him dearly. Billy's legacy of love, laughter, hard work, and devotion to family will forever live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him. The visitation will be held on Tuesday, February 10, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. at Willis Funeral Service Chapel. The memorial service will follow immediately after at 4 PM.
