Billy Charles (Bill) Bagwell, 93, passed away on June 3, 2026, in Conroe, Texas surrounded by his family. He was born on September 28, 1932, in the Pine Springs community of Tyler, Texas, to James Cecil Bagwell and Mildred Marsh Bagwell.

Bill loved his customers and wanted them to succeed. He was known to dump crops that he didn't feel were the best quality rather than sell someone a product that didn't meet his standards.

He retired from the nursery business in 2013 and spent his retirement years reading (3-4 books per week), watching sports, keeping his property up, going to the library, traveling, taking classes at the local community college, working out at the cardio rehab center, and spending time with family and friends.
