By Jaycox-Jaworski Funeral Home - Crematory | Posted in: Jaycox-Jaworski Funeral Home & Crematory

William (Billy) M. Stevens, age 67, of New Alexandria, died August 7, 2025 at his home. Born October 26, 1958 in McKeesport, he was the son of the late James Stevens and Shirley (Schlessinger) Stevens Burd, and life partner of the living, Pamela Lukacs Mrazik.

Billy was a giving man who exemplified kindness and generosity in every sense. Always ready to lend a helping hand, he would readily give the shirt off his back for his loved ones. Known for his humor-delivered in a gruff but endearing way-Billy's loyalty was unmatched, and guided those around him.

A true truck driver at heart, Billy loved anything with a motor. His drive came from his hero Max Schlessinger (his grandfather) who took him under his wing as a young boy. Billy often joked, "I've got more miles backing up than you do driving forward," a testament to the years he spent behind the wheel. His hands, often stained with engine grease, reflected a life deeply rooted in working on project cars and fixing things around the house. His passion for speed and motorsports was evident in his devotion as a NASCAR fan, dreaming of one day following the NASCAR Cup Series Circuit.
