William Franklin Gambrell

June 3, 1949 — November 14, 2021

William “Bill” Gambrell entered into rest on Sunday, November 14, 2021. He was born and raised in Ware Shoals, SC., and was 72 years young when he passed in his family home of over 30 years.

After attending the Citadel, he transferred to Erskine College to finish his Bachelors/Masters in the Sciences. Upon moving to Augusta, GA., over a span of 35 years he became one of the most known and friendliest faces at Milton Rueben Chevrolet.

He is survived by four cousins and his only child, his daughter, Nicole. Bill was a kind, intelligent and hardworking man who believed that a smile could change someone’s day. Maybe that’s because his smile had such power behind it. Even in his last moments, he found the strength to smile.”

The family will receive friends at the funeral home from 2:00 until time of service. The service will start at 3:00 with the Rev. William Harrell officiating.

Platts Funeral Home, 337 North Belair Road.
