William Price
Iii
d. Feb 8, 2023
William Price III, age 93, died at home on February 8, 2023. The beloved husband of the late Elizabeth Cassidy Price, Mr. Price was a devoted father and loving grandfather. He was a resident of Upper Providence Township for nearly three decades before moving to Nether Providence where he spent the last 37 years.
Son of the late William Price Jr. and Elva E. (née Sakers), Bill was born and raised in Pennsylvania's oldest city, Chester. He was a graduate of Chester High School and attended the United State Air Force Technical School. Bill was honorably discharged as a Sergeant with the US Air Force and served in the Army Reserve and Merchant Marines. He enjoyed a long career as a lab technician at Sun Oil Refinery in Marcus Hook where he studied the chemical analysis of manufactured products. He furthered his education attending classes at Denver University Night School.
Bill was a 32 nd Degree Free Mason, a former police officer and a past president of Edgmont County Club. He was involved with both Reformation Lutheran Church and Media Presbyterian Church. He enjoyed golf, classic cars, reading, trivia and movies – he knew them all! Bill was an excellent cook and "mixologist." He had a great appreciation for music and was the drummer for the "Rhythm Riffs." He enjoyed summers in Barnegat Light New Jersey on Long Beach Island and absolutely treasured time spent with family.
Bill was predeceased by his beloved wife, Elizabeth Cassidy Price, and his son, Mark William Price of Media, PA. He is survived by his loving daughter, Tracy Elizabeth Price, also of Media, PA. Fondly known as "Bop", he is survived by four (4) loving grandchildren: grandsons, Angelo Adrian Lochetto, Jr. and William Price Lochetto; and granddaughters, Samantha Christine Price and Meghan Cassidy Price.
Bill was extremely charitable; a donation to your favorite charity, in his name, would be most appreciated.
