RUMNEY ---- William R Muzzey Sr., 70, of Rumney, NH passed away peacefully at home on Friday, July 25, 2025, surrounded by his loving family. Born July 19, 1955, Bill fought a courageous two-year battle with pancreatic cancer with grace and strength.
He was born in Plymouth, NH to the late Maurice H. Muzzey and Elva C. (Eastman) Muzzey.
A man of simple joys, Bill loved sipping his tea while reading the newspaper, working on projects outside, spending time with his family and preparing for the next season—often reminding his kids to, “Come cut the firewood.” He was known for his warm smile and willingness to help others. After many years at NH Electric Co-op, Bill found joy driving a school bus, proudly photographing the places his bus traveled.
He is survived by his three sons, David R. Muzzey, William R. Muzzey, Jr., Steep Falls, and Zephaniah M. Muzzey, Rumney, four daughters, Stacey A. Muzzey, Sarah A. Muzzey, Wentworth, NH, Tiffany A. Muzzey, and Sadie M. Muzzey, eight grandchildren, brothers Maurice K. Muzzey and his wife Rose, and Robert W. Muzzey and his wife Teresa, and sister Diane C. Cheney.
As we say goodbye, we honor Bill, aka Tweetie Bird with a last call, “Your route is complete, your journey is finished. Rest easy, knowing you were deeply loved and will never be forgotten. Over and out, Tweetie Bird—until we meet again.”
A Graveside Service will be held on Sunday, August 17, 2025 at 2:00pm in Foster Cemetery, Rumney, NH.
