Mr. Roy L. Williams

December 21, 1921 - June 18, 2020

I WILL praise You; O LORD, with my whole heart; I will tell of all Your marvelous works. I will be and rejoice in You; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High. (Psalms 9;1-2) Mr. Roy L. Williams was born in Scobey, Mississippi to the union of Calup and Fannie Tillman-Williams. Roy was preceded in death by both his beloved parents, four brothers Tom, Calup, Elmas, and CV, and his two sisters Mary and Margaret. He confessed Christ at an early age and attended church regularly at Wellston Housing Authority. He retired from Jakes Evans after 17 years. Roy was united in Holy Matrimony to Beatrice Taylor-Williams. This union produced eight children: Joe, Elmas, F.C., Alice, X.L., Henry, Roy, and Mary. From the relationship of Pearlean Taylor, five children were produced: James, Charles, Ruby, Irene, and Willie. From the relationship of Pamela Osbourne, one child was produced: Roberto. He also had two step-daughters: Nyanna and Leona. Roy was well remembered for being kind, loving, and happy. He was a bit of a jokester. He loved to fish and his joy came from working on cars. Later in life, he was loved and cared for by Scarlett and Priscilla. He would often tease Scarlett about learning how to cook. Also, his grand-daughter Bobbie assisted with caring for him. They were very genuinely loving to him and the family is forever grateful. Roy departed this life on June 18, 2020, at home, very peacefully and surrounded by his children. He leaves to cherish in his memories: his children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great great grandchildren, great great great grandchildren, nieces, nephews and host of other family members.
