Father, Kempis Lee Alvey, Jr
Mother, Verna Izora Kendall
William was named for a great uncle of my father, not his stepfather who he despised.
In 2010, I called Inglewood Cemetery for a location of my brother's ashes. I attended his interment when I was a young boy and knew he was there somewhere. The cemetery replied that they have no record of his interment so it appears William is in some unmarked and unrecorded spot in that cemetery. His published obits confirm that and my attendance with my brother Earl and our parents confirm that fact as well. - Bob
