Robert Williams

Robert Williams

Robert Lee Williams departed this life on Friday, February 11, 2022.  He was born July 27, 1950, in Tunica Mississippi.  Very much-loved son of the late Wince Lee Williams & Ossie Lee Braxton-Williams. Brother to Wince (Dub) Williams, James (Frog) Williams and those who preceded in death-Willie Braxton, Mary Jo Williams, Delores Williams, John Williams & Clarence Williams.

Robert was a hardworking man.  He spent many years as a machinist.  In his spare time, he enjoyed spending time with his family; going back to where he grew up in Oran, MO to play cards on the weekends with his brothers; having lunch with his high school friends.  Robert had a big heart. He would do anything for anybody.  He was a man of his word and made things happen.  Spending time with his wife, kids & especially his grandkids is what he loved most.

Robert, the husband to Jerlean Johnson-Williams; Father & daddy to daughters Sabrina Banks, Tamiko Williams-Higgins (Timothy), Christina Williams-Williams (Alonzo) & Robin­ Williams; Grandpa (papa) to eleven grandchildren with one preceding him in death.  Four great grandchildren.  Uncle Rob to a host of nieces and nephews.

He was Rob, Robert, Robert Lee & Mr. Williams to his friends, workplace friends, and neighbors.

Robert was like family.  We’d known each other since 6th Grade (1963), and our friendship lasted throughout the years.  There was no greater joy, for me, than to go to lunch with Robert and see his smiling face.  We would tell stories and laugh the entire time.  I will miss him greatly, and he will always be remembered.  Your teammate forever.  Rod
