This memorial website was dedicated in the memory of my son William F. Umstadter II.
He was 39 years old, born on January 10, 1982 and unexpectedly passed away on April 19, 2021.
Son of Abbey S. Hunter and the Late William F Umstadter Sr.
Brother to Tristan S. Umstadter, Amanda L. Johnson and the Late Sarra Anne Umstadter.
Maternal Grandmother, the Late Roslyn Baum. Paternal Grandparents, the Late George and Anne Umstadter.
Billy was the proud father of Allison Taylor Umstadter, he would be so proud of the young woman she has become. Allison is very much like her dad, with ocean blue eyes and a beautiful, kind soul. This is truly sad as Billy will miss many life milestones Allison will eventually reach and she will not have her Dad to be there for her. Graduating high school, getting married, having children.
Billy has two nieces and adored them both. Harlee and Harper Baker. Billy used to go for long walks with them while visiting in Tennessee with his sister, Amanda. According to Amanda, he taught them how to throw rocks at houses lol. Billy and his brother Tristan were close. They would often ride their dirt bike, quad, snow mobiles on our property in Johnsonville. They both fought like brothers but loved each other always. Billy and Amanda had a special big brother, little sister bond. Some things they did together I never wanted to know about. Amanda knows exactly what I am referring to. Last time Billy and Amanda were together was in the mountains of Georgia riding their mountain bikes together the day of her wedding when she married Brandon, days before Billy passed away. Every day together truly is a blessing never to be taken for granted. Amanda and Billy had many fond memories together while he was visiting her in Tennessee, I will leave it at that. Billy had a wild side, but was true to himself and his family and friends.
Billy had one true friend from high school, her name was Jill (McNaughton) Ryan. He repsected and admired her until the end she remained true.
Billy resided in Schaghticoke most of his life and attended Hoosic Valley Central School from kindergarten until he graduated Class of 2000.
Billy worked for Quality Retail System 2004-2020, then he pursued a career with Global Foundries in 2017 until 2020.
Billy moved to Chapel Hill North Carolina to pursue employment at Cree Wolfspeed in Durham North Carolina in 2020-2021.
Sadly, Billy passed away suddenly April 19th, 2021. Life has forever changed for his family and friends with his loss.
There is not a day that goes by that Billy is not missed by friends and family. I will never let his beautiful light fade. His humor, his laugh, his loyalty to friends and family will always be remembered.
Let his memory bring joy to our hearts always and forever.
