July 5, 1952 - May 29, 2021

William Albert Tankersley, age 68 of Highland Home, passed away on Saturday, May 29, 2021, at Baptist Medical Center South in Montgomery. Mr. Tankersley was a man of few material possessions, but whatever he had he would give to anyone if they needed it. He had so much joy in giving even if he didn't have it to give! He was a momma's boy that loved Jesus, his children, and his family more than anything in the world. He always provided to the best of his ability and always put his children before himself. He is survived by four children: sons, William and Shane Thomas; daughters, Dawn Sampley and Brenda Tankersley; grandchildren, Jasmine and Skylar Sampley, Isaiah, Zendaya and Micha Tankersley, William and Adan Thomas, and Brooklynn and Payton Thomas; sisters, Ruby and Mike Davis, Brenda and Buddy Swindall, Margaret Jones and Martha Neeley; and by a host of nieces and nephews. Mr. Tankersley was preceded in death by his mother and father, Lonie Bell and MV Tankersley; sister, Sarah Gothard; and son, Chris Tankersley. He was so very loved by his children and family! His going home service will be held at 12:00PM on Saturday, June 5, 2021, at Magnolia Baptist, 150 Upper Bozeman Road, Lapine, AL 36046
