    William Samuel Bouldin

    March 10, 1926 - August 8, 2020

    William Samuel Bouldin passed away on Saturday, August 8, 2020 at the age of 94. He was a native of Muskogee, OK and a resident of Metairie, LA. Beloved husband of the late Rose Marie Davenport Bouldin. Loving father of Charles Edward “Chuck” Bouldin (Jo Kresse-Bouldin) and Elizabeth Paula Bouldin (Randall Williamson). Grandfather of Lilly Bouldin and Kyla Bouldin. Son of the late Pauline Ridley Bouldin and Edward Sandy Bouldin, Sr. Brother of Granville S. R. Bouldin, Sr. Preceded in death by his brother, Edward Sandy Bouldin, Jr. Bill was a proud Cadet Corps graduate of Texas A&M, a decorated World War II veteran(Bronze Star) serving in the 10th Mountain Division in Italy. He also served in the Army Corps of Engineers during the Korean War. He was a devoted churchman in the Disciples of Christ, and served on numerous ecumenical committees throughout his life. After a distinguished career with Texaco, he and his wife Winkie in 1991 embarked on an adventurous post-retirement career by helping found the New Orleans chapter of the Ulster Project, an organization dedicated to fostering peace in Northern Ireland. He was passionate in his desire for everyone to feel respected and included in all aspects of society. He changed many lives for the better; his legacy lives on in them. The family wishes to thank Alva Hubbard, Wanda Mundy, and Toreal Manson for their tender care of both Bill and his wife Winkie in recent years. Thanks also to Vivian Macaluso for her attentive and loving friendship during these most trying times. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to First Christian Church of Greater New Orleans or the New Orleans chapter of the Ulster Project. No services are planned at this time due to ongoing COVID-19 restrictions. Wear your masks, y’all. To share memories or condolences, please visit www.muhleisen.com
