William Edward Armour

William "Bill" Edward Armour passed away March 11, 2022, in Libby. He was born Aug. 1, 1938, in Boston to the late William Charles Armour and Alice Wanita Faulkner. After graduation from Culver City High School in California, Bill enlisted in the U.S. Army and completed a tour in Korea.

Bill was a Teamster long haul big rig truck driver for 32 years in California. After retiring, Bill drove tour buses throughout the U.S., and was a driver supporting the U.S. Marines Corps at Twentynine Palms, Calif. In 2015, Bill and his wife, Maureen, moved to Libby.

Bill’s greatest joy in life was his marriage to his sweetheart, soul mate and true love: Maureen May McFatter. We joined Bill and Maureen last summer to pay tribute to their 50 years of a marriage, a union that is a living example of how to put the needs and wishes of another ahead of oneself.

He was happiest gathered with family, playing games and sharing a good laugh. Bill enjoyed traveling to all-inclusive resorts, taking cruises, playing cards and driving his large Class A RV across the country.

From his former wife, he has two surviving children, Laurie Ann and William Jr. (Nancy Warren); two surviving daughters from Maureen’s previous marriage, Kimberly Ann Johnson (Jay Moody) and Monique Johnson (Chris Thompson); eight grandchildren, Katie (William), Caitlin, Kristine (Troy), Nicholas (Olivia), Ryan, Kabrina, Chance and Cole; and two great-grandchildren, Kiera and Andie.
