William "Bill" LeMoyne Delcuze

William "Bill" LeMoyne Delcuze, 81, of Bay Saint Louis, Mississippi, passed away on Friday, October 18, 2024.

He was a veteran of the United States Air Force and honorably served as an intelligence officer in Thailand during the Vietnam War during which he reached the rank of Captain. He held degrees from Mississippi State University and William Carey College. 

He was a loving father, teacher, mentor and preacher. He loved the Gulf Coast and always called it home. He had a real passion for people from all walks of life. He never met a stranger and looked for any opportunity to share the Gospel and God's love for them. He dedicated his life to reaching the lost and teaching the Bible. We know that he truly touched the lives of countless people. We also know that he is where he wanted to be, with Jesus talking his ear off! He will be missed.
