McClanahan, William "Bill" F.

He graduated from Poca High School in 1956 and then moved to Ohio where he met the love of his life, Beverly. He and Beverly enjoyed almost 60 years of marriage until the time of her passing in 2016. Bill retired from Champion Paper Company and then Miami University, where many of his fellow employees enjoyed his homemade soups and ice cream, which he was well known for. Bill always enjoyed feeding people and sharing about his Jesus. Bills most favorite statement was "I just don't know how people survive without him". Bill was a long time member of the College Corner Church of the Nazarene, where over the years he held many positions. Bill will be missed by many, especially those who often shared time with him on his swing. If they were unable to find him there, he could be found logging miles on his red trike.
