Bill’s diagnosis with stage 4 cancer was first made public knowledge last year, as Bunnie unveiled the medical battle with fans. “I received one of the worst calls yesterday that shook me to my core. My dad has been silently battling Stage 4 cancer for the past year alone w/just his wife,” she wrote at the time.
“He insisted no one kno so he could try to heal it himself because he’s into holistic remedies,” she continued. “Sadly the cancer has now spread into his bone marrow and & his bones are breaking, he can’t lift his arms, walk, barely eat & he’s in so much pain you can’t even hug him.”
Additionally, Bill underwent a second hip replacement surgery in February.
Following the photos Bunnie shared Wednesday, she also posted a Reels video featuring the deceased in high spirits during happier times, captioned simply with a broken heart emoji.
In the social media gallery were photos and videos of the man playing guitar, as well as being kissed by his daughter and her country crooner husband.
