WILLIAM “BILL” EDWARD ROBINSON, age 78, of Washington CH, passed away on Friday, August 11, 2023 as a result of a motorcycle accident.
He was born on November 27, 1944 in Franklin County, Ohio to the late Leroy and Sally (Seville) Robinson. He was a graduate of Fairfield High School in Leesburg and a graduate of Ohio University.
