Waymon David Williams

Waymon David Williams went to be with our Lord on December 21, 2016. He died from complications of Alzheimer’s. He was born in San Angelo, TX, in 1944 to John D and Ethel Williams. He enjoyed a rich childhood in Wickett, Texas,with cherished friends and beloved cousins, attended First Baptist Church there, where he often led the song service, and graduated from Monahans High School, where he sang in a barbershop quartet and played in the band.

He received an M.B.A. from University of North Texas in accounting and became a CPA and real estate developer, building restaurants for Steak and Ale, Chi Chi’s, and Outback Steak House. His career led him and his family to Dallas, Tyler, Round Rock, Louisville, KY, Norman, OK, and back to Texas.

He enjoyed family trips--fishing, camping, and hunting--traveling, spending time with his family at home, family reunions, and making and keeping friends. He served as a deacon in the early days of Prestonwood Baptist in Dallas, and he spent his life wanting to lead others to Jesus.

He and his wife attended The River Church since moving to Decatur in 2004.  After an illness, he lived at Senior Care in Decatur, under the care of many loving medical professionals.

He is survived by his wife, Judy, of 51 years, his son, Kenneth Williams of Redding, CA, and his daughter-in-law, Tiffany, his daughter Tina Clark of Frisco, TX, and his son-in-law Matt, his seven grandchildren, Garrett, Austin, Hudson, Macey, Cooper, Knox and Sutton, and a host of family and friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents, and his brother, Dwain.
