William "Bill" Bryan Bundick of Clear Spring, Maryland, passed away on December 28, 2012, at the age of 79 in Winchester, Virginia. Bill was preceded in death by his grandparents Oscar and Lillie Barnes, his mother, Theodosia Barnes Truitt, his father Horace Bundick, his stepfathers James Truitt and Ray Galloway, his brother James "Jimmy" Bundick, and his aunt Amanda Ewell. He is survived, and will be missed, by his wife, Marie Salgado, his son Arthur, daughter-in-law Carmen, granddaughter Amanda, brothers David Bundick of Jenison, Michigan and Robert Galloway of Boise City, Idaho, numerous cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends.
Bill was born on the Eastern Shore of Virginia on April 10, 1933. His life was nothing if not exciting. As a child, he attended English schools in Addis-Abeba, Ethiopia, and Cairo, Egypt. As a young man, he worked for an oil company in the Sudan before returning to the Eastern Shore. He began his career with the Department of the Navy at Wallops Island, Virginia. He then worked for Harry Diamond Labs, a research laboratory that helped bring the Army into the future, in Washington, D.C. He traveled around the globe, overseeing the installation of communications and tracking equipment for the Department of the Army while working at Fort Huachuca in Sierra Vista, Arizona. At his retirement from civilian service for the Department of Defense, he was the Chief of the Transmission Branch at Fort Ritchie.
Bill was a dedicated thirty-third degree member of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry in the Valley of Cumberland. He was a member of the San Pedro #55 Blue Lodge in Benson, Arizona; a member of the Ali Ghan Shrine of Shriners International in Cumberland; a member of Hagerstown Shrine Club; a member of Tall Cedar of Lebanon in the Hagerstown Forest #95; a member of Guardian Teocali #32; a member of the American Legion and the Elks Lodge #378. He was a past member of the Appalachian Trial Club, a Major in the Civil Air Patrol, and he held a General Class Amateur Radio License (N3NHW) as a member of the Antietam Radio Association and the American Radio Relay League.
Bill, affectionately called Bryan by his family, will be forever missed and loved. Private services will be held later at the convenience of his family. Memorial donations may be made to the Shriners Hospital for Children, 3551 North Broad Street, Philadelphia, PA 19140 or to the Speech Clinic of the Cumberland Scottish Rite Foundation c/o Jerry Robinette, 73 LaVale Boulevard, Cumberland, MD 21512.
