Marcus Williams Obituary

Mr. Marcus Antonio Williams was born May 27, 1988 at Madigan Army Medical Center in Tacoma, Washington to Mr. Otis G. Williams Sr. and Barbara McNeil Willams.

He is preceded in death by his infant son, Jaylon King Williams, his paternal Grandparents, Will Stewart and Gussie Williams, of Florence, Alabama, and Jasper and Dorothy Randleman, of Tobaccoville, North Carolina.

Marcus blessed our lives with 36 beautiful years. Anyone who met Marcus was captivated by his smile, goofiness and contagious charm. Marcus had a heart for children. There wasn’t a day that went by that he didn’t ask about Malaiya, Destiny, Harrison, Ezekeil, Chloe, Rayana, Charlee and the children at Mount Pleasant Church.

Left to cherish his memories: his two sons, Harrison Carter Williams and Ezekeil Jayceon (McGuire) Tate of Florence, Alabama, his Father, Otis G. Williams Sr, of Florence, Alabama, Mother, Barbara McNeil Williams of Muscle Shoals, Alabama, Brother, Otis G. Williams, Jr. (Shandon) of Bessmer, Alabama, Sister, Tekesha Y. Williams of Florence, Alabama, two uncles, Rev. Willie Nelson Williams (Lida) of Florence, Alabama, Robert James Williams (Cheryl) of Florence, Alabama, , two aunts, Dr. Veronica Gregg (Rev James Gregg) of Spring Lake, North Carolina and Willie Mae Russell of Florence, Alabama; three nieces, Malaiya Garner of Huntsville, Alabama, Destiny Fletcher of Sheffield, Alabama, Rayna Williams of Bessmer, Alabama and host of cousins.
