Billy Bruce McClain

Billy Bruce McClain, of Saint Peters, MO, passed away Saturday, January 18, 2025, at the age of 60. Loving husband of Tracy McClain; beloved son of Darlene Kay Carroll and Bruce McClain; devoted father of Madison (Larry Tobar) McClain, and Mackenzie (Calvin Rottger) McClain; cherished grandfather of Lyric Tobar, and Shamar Tobar; dear brother of Carlene (Jason) Feco, Valorie Johnson, and Raycal; and stepbrother of Aaron Wright. 

Bill had a deep love for music; he played the guitar and sang. He was a kind-hearted and loving man, devoted to his family and especially his daughters. Bill was endlessly supportive, incredibly funny, and had a strong passion for motorcycles. As a proud member of the Widow Sons, he found joy in traveling and connecting with others. A natural problem-solver, he was highly skilled with mechanics and a loyal friend to many. 

An extrovert and social butterfly, Bill had a gift for making everyone feel welcome. He never met a stranger—everyone he encountered quickly became a friend. His generosity and willingness to help others were boundless. Bill was a rare mix of rugged strength and tenderheartedness, embodying both the qualities of a "manly man" and a soft soul. 

He and Tracy shared 38 years of marriage, and she cherished him every single day. Family and relationships were at the center of his world. With over 500 contacts in his phone, Bill regularly reached out to check in on people, always ensuring they felt remembered and cared for. 

Billy was deeply loved and will be profoundly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
