Carl Edward Bills, 79, of Louisville, Kentucky, passed away on August 9, 2026. Carl was a steady dependable man who devoted his life to caring for his family. Carl enjoyed fishing, boating, bowling, and spending time with his wife and family. Of course, he will be remembered for his fantastic sense of humor, and his love of Louisville basketball. He worked for several years as a journeyman union pipefitter with Local 502.
He is survived by his loving wife, Linda Bills; his sons, Mike and Bryan Bills; and his granddaughter, Raegan Bills, as well as several extended family members he loved dearly.
Carl was preceded in death by his parents, Louis and Carolyn Bills; his sister, Lou Anne Schultz, and his
