Gorham – William (Bill) R. Bunnell, Jr., 65, passed away with his loving family by his side on Saturday, December 6, 2014 at a local hospital. Bill was born December 30, 1948, in Fort Fairfield, the son of William and Natalie (Parker) Bunnell.
Bill grew up in Caribou, and then he graduated from Maine Central Institute in Pittsfield, class of 1967. He attended Unity College where he received a Forestry degree, later finding his passion in surveying, drawing up blueprints, and estimating for various construction projects.
