INTERMENT: Martin Chapel, Pacific Junction, Iowa.
William Henry Lundy, Jr., 54, of Pacific Junction, Iowa entered into eternal rest on March 19, 2009 in Council Bluffs, Iowa. He was born December 8, 1954 in Newport, Rhode Island to William and Polsinia (Garcia) Lundy, Sr.
William was self-employed as a carpenter and was a talented machinist working on many Harley Davidson motorcycles throughout the years. One could say he was definitely a Harley fanatic. He thoroughly loved going riding with his friends whenever possible. In the evenings, William could be found playing dice and cards. He was a talented musician, playing the guitar, as well as the harmonica. He, along with his friends, recorded a c.d. which he dedicated to his brother, David. Camping with family and friends always brought fun times and in his younger years he enjoyed hunting. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
Preceding William in death was his brother, David Lundy in 2005. He is survived by his daughter, Amy Lynn & husband John Petersen of Omaha, Nebraska; parents, William Henry & Polsinia Lundy, Sr. of St. Cloud, Florida; sisters, Debbie Lundy of Council Bluffs, Iowa; Lorrie Hansen of Kissimmee, Florida; several nieces, nephews, extended relatives and a host of friends.

In today’s society in which one’s character is often measured by that which is purchased; you stand as a testimony of a by-gone era in which one’s character was measured by that which he earned; and more importantly, that which he kept.
Some only saw the tattoos, the leather and refusal to conform to the convictions of others; we saw Courage, Honor and Strength. And we learned the true meaning of Loyalty, Acceptance and Respect. And above all else, we know the true meaning of friendship. Thank you for all that you were and all that you demanded us to be. See ya on the other side –
Bill was a very caring man and friend to my brother Moose when Moose was sick. He would sit Moose at UNMC when he had his transplant and always watched out for him. He will be missed!

We will really miss Billy’s easy smile and we so appreciated all the help he offered to Cindi and to us through the last few years. Just mention something we were working on and he would show up with his hammer or paint brush ready to pitch in. What a neat guy! I don’t ever remember seeing him without a smile on his face. He has been a wonderful friend to Cindi since Ron’s passing and John and I will always appreciate having known “Billy Bob.” P.J. won’t be the same. It really is true, the good die young.
Billy will be deeply missed by all who knew him. He has reminded me that life is short, we all should be true to who we are, and at the same time, smile, have a good time, and let the pieces fall where they may. I am so sorry to Bill’s family and my heart goes out to you. Know that both of the Lundy boys left a mark on my life, as well as the lives of many others. May God hold you in the palm of his hand. My sincerest condolences, Lisa Bolan, Glenwood, Iowa
Our thoughts & prayers will be with you. Yes it is true only the “Good Die Young”. Ronnie & Billy had some wonderful times together & I’m sure they will make more together in HEAVEN. We loved Billy Bob and he will be missed deeply. May they be riding in PEACE now. GOD BLESS YOUR FAMILY,From Ron Morris Family

Hey Billy! I gotta tell you something! You know, you were always able to brighten my day and, even though you’re gone, you’re still doing it! Whenever I feel those tears welling up I simply picture that GREAT smiling face of yours. It immediately brings a smile back to mine! Thank you for the MANY laughs and wonderful memories you’ve left Dennis and I with. It’s those “pictures” and memories that are getting us through. No one can take those away.
My heart goes out to Billy Bobs and Daves parents as we know what it is like to loose 2 sons so young. Also I am saddened I will not be able to make it down to send off my friend, but circumstances won’t allow it. Billy Bob has always known the special place he has had in my heart for over 30yrs. His acts of kindness were uncomparable and he was a very forgiving and loving friend. His sense of humor unmatched. Those that had the pleasure of Billy Bobs “stories” knew he could make a story about taking out the garbage a hysterical and gut wrenching experience. It was also fun to make him blush, which is something I enjoyed doing quite often. My husband knowing how much Billy Bob has always meant to me would like to tease him also. He would tell Billy that I had his picture above our bed and I would yell out “Billy Bob” during our intimate times. HE WOULD GET SO EMBARRASSED AND TURN BEET RED! I sure will miss my Billy Bob, but am comforted by knowing that he will be in the company of our sons Damon and Cody,and his dear friends Ronnie Morris, Gary Doyel and Dick Shryock and of course his brother Dave. The world will never be the same without “Billy Bob”.
My sincere condolences to Billy’s parents, sister Debbie and of course sister Lori Cogley (inside joke). I don’t have the words to say how I feel about Bill. He was a true friend. When our other “friends” quit being friends after our own loss, Bill still called to see how we were doing. He will be missed and we will keep him in our hearts forever.
What a neat guy, since Jr. High Billy has been my “bud” riding motorcycles, when they were not Harley’s and jumping in his pickup going to Skateland. I and everyone who knew “Billy Bob” will miss him terribly. You are in my thoughts and prayers. May God Bless you.

I thought of you with love today but that is nothing new, I thought about you yesterday and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name; all I have are memories and your picture in a frame. Your memory is my keepsake with which I’ll never part, God has you in His keeping… I have you in my heart. Forever. Until we meet again, Love you, mean it…MaDona
I RECENTLY LEARNED OF OUR LOSS. I HAVE ALWAYS REMEMBERED BILL IN MY HEART AS A FRIEND AND THINK OF HIM OFTEN. I AM SADDENED TO KNOW THAT HE IS NO LONGER WITH US… I HAD ALWAYS HOPED TO SEE HIM AGAIN.
TO HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS, I MOURN YOUR LOSS AND WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I WILL MISS HIM TOO.
