William Whiteley Farrow, Sr. passed peacefully on Friday August 27, 2021 at TidalHealth Nanticoke Hospital in Seaford, with family at his side. Born January 13, 1944 in Wilmington DE to the late Benjamin Cole Farrow and Lillian Whiteley Farrow. Bill graduated from John Dickinson Highschool with the class of 1962. It was there that he met the love of his life, Sharon. They were married October 10, 1964. Bill was a sheet metal fabricator and carpenter by trade. During the 70s, he took sailing lessons to learn how to sail the boat that he built so that he could enjoy quality time with his family. In the 80s, he started his own company that he named Country Heirlooms. He built and refinished many beautiful pieces of furniture for clients including a lovely cross for a local church. In the 90s he got his motorcycle license and enjoyed traveling the open roads together with his wife. Bill enjoyed guns, classic cars, a passion for duck decoys but most of all loved being near the water. Bill loved the Lord and became an ordained minister later in life. God and his family were his priorities.
