William “Will” Lester Raney – age 44, passed away October 4, 2024, in Nashville, TN.

Mr. Raney is preceded in death by his brother, Robert “Butch” Raney.

Survived by daughters, Morgan Eady (Dylan), Piper Raney; parents, RL Raney and Jane Raney; fiancé, Ashley Mattox; grandchildren, Reagan Eady, Ellie Eady, Peyton Eady, M.J. Eady; sisters, Shasie Raney, nephews, Dalton Raney, Dustin Raney; survived by cousins and other family and friends.

Will loved everyone.  You could find him on a softball field, a fishing tournament, or towing a car.  He was always trying to make you laugh, and if he wasn’t he was trying to aggravate you. Will was an avid UT Football Fan. Go Vols!  Life without him will never be the same, and I pray for peace in all of our hearts.

  9. Will , What a great neighbor for many years! Will would give the shirt off his back! Always talking to me about his kids and grand babies, with the biggest smile! He was so very proud of you! I’m Not sure how many times he would stand on the front porch and throw up a hand.and a crooked smile, Or help my boys with their trucks, or run to my rescue when my car wouldn’t start. A great neighbor! And definitely going to miss his laughter. Right before he moved, Will told me he was finally in the happiest place in his life, and was going to marry Ashley, the love of his life. Will, may you rest in eternal peace, gone way to soon! Love and Prayers family and friends! They say the good die young, this is perfect example of the good die young.
