Bill was born in Claremore on July 20, 1932 to parents Joe and Frances Mae

Following his honorable discharge four years later, Bill worked on the

Bill and Gwenith were blessed with seven children and made their home in 
Claremore as well as other Oklahoma communities.

As his children grew up and married, they blessed his life with his treasured 
grandchildren. 

On April 9, 1992, Bill married Juanita Vandeveer Bradney in Geary and the 
Claremore/Talala area has been their home since.

Bill enjoyed fishing, hunting and gardening and was particularly fond of his 
beautiful red roses. 

He was a hard worker, self-confident and strong. According to his grandchildren, 
"He was cool".

Those who survive and carry treasured memories of Bill include his wife, 
Juanita of Claremore, children, Deborah Fultz and Terrence Mouton of Stillwater, 
Steve Mouton of Bakersfield, Calif., and Brad Mouton and Teresa Mouton, also 
of Stillwater, nine grandchildren, one great-grandchild, and two sisters, 
Shirley Froman of Claremore and Dorothy Dewey of Chelsea. 

He was preceded in death by two sons, Billy Don Mouton and Rodney Mouton and
