William Barger
May 7, 1941 - April 5, 2022
Sun City West, Arizona - William Robert Barger (Bill), passed away peacefully in his sleep in the early morning hours of Tuesday April 5th, 2022 in Surprise Arizona from natural causes. He was 80. Bill was born in Scottsbluff Nebraska on May 7th, 1941 to father Learner A. Barger and mother Ella M. Thompson.
He was preceded in death by his parents and his three older siblings, Melvin Barger, Alyce Powell and Richard Barger. The Barger family moved to the Treasure Valley when Bill was a young child. He was proud that he attended each of the area high schools in operation during his teen years; first Nampa High School, then Boise High, before becoming a member of the first graduating class of Borah High School in 1959. He worked at the family business, Barger Mattson Auto Salvage after school. This had its benefits, as Bill's first car was a custom-painted chartreuse and black lacquer '56 Chevy Bel Air. After graduation, he joined the United States Navy, where he trained as a Hospital Corpsman to the Marines while stationed at the Marine Corps base at O'ahu, in Honolulu, Hawaii.
He attended Boise Junior College briefly where he met his first wife Connie Zoe Youngblood, whom he married in 1966. He successfully operated two businesses in the treasure valley, before taking an early retirement to his ranch in Wickenburg Arizona.
Bill is survived by Connie Youngblood Barger, his two daughters and their spouse; as well as his four grandchildren.
The family would like to extend their gratitude to the staff at Kingswood Place in Surprise Arizona for the loving care they provided Bill in his final months. He will be interred at Kohlerlawn Cemetery in Nampa Idaho.
