____________________________________________________________________________________
William (Bill) Edward Mosley, 85, of Waco, died at his residence on Friday, August 31, 2007.
The service will be at 2 p.m., Tuesday, September 4, at the OakCrest Funeral Home with the Rev. David Shuttlesworth officiating. Masonic rites will be conducted by the Fidelis Lodge during the service. Burial will follow in Rosemound Cemetery.
Visitation will be from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Monday, Sept. 3, at OakCrest Funeral Home, 4520 Bosque Blvd.
Bill was born March 18, 1922 in Hill County to Lee and Lois (Moseley) Mosley, and was reared in Elk, Axtell and Lorena. He married the former Wililia Guyton on February 17, 1951 in Hobbs, New Mexico. He retired as the shipping foreman with Krafcor/Bardcor Corporation after 30 years of service.
