Tim Williams

Age 75 of Navarre passed away with his family by his side on August 16, 2021. He was born on December 18, 1945 in Massillon, Ohio to the late Thomas and Eileen Williams.

He is survived by his wife, Barb of 42 wonderful years of marriage; children, daughter, Kelly (John) Winters, daughter, Heather (Dan) Massarelli, son, Tommy (fiancé Lexi), daughter, Alex (Chad) Shetler; grandchildren, Madison, Nicholas, Isabella, Ridge, and Cole; sister, Holly (Ila) Mansager; his beloved partner in crime, Stacy Vance; and countless friends. Tim, as many would say, was a very successful man of many businesses. Tim enjoyed spending all of his time with his family and friends. He was without a doubt known for being the most selfless, energetic, generous man who would do anything for anyone, he would even give his famous blue robe off his back if it meant helping someone in need. Tim always made friends anywhere he went, without exception he was the life of the party, his smiles and jokes could light up a room no matter where he was. Tim will never be forgotten, his legacy will forever live on through his endless, off the wall, ludicrous stories.

In true Tim fashion, he wished that everyone celebrates his life, therefore there will be no funeral or calling hours held. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Aultman Compassionate Care Center. Arrangements entrusted to the Mark R. Vrabel Funeral Home, North Canton 330-452-4041.

I'm just learning about Tim's passing. We go back to childhood days when his parents and mine were best friends. He had a big personality and a big heart. I'm sorry to learn that he has passed. Condolences to all who loved him.

Barb, Tommy, family and Stacy,

I was heartbroken to hear about Tim's passing. As a "cancer buddy" he was an inspiration. And as a client he was special and will be remembered fondly. You all remain in my thoughts and prayers.

My deepest sympathy to you all! I knew Tim as the "business man" but in all actuality he was more a friend. His kindness and generosity flowed into his "work life" and he could always make me laugh. He exhibited those traits even until the end - and thank you Barb for bringing him to our office for one "last" visit. I will always cherish that time and his kindness that day. #beliketim

I am sorry to hear of Tim's passing. I was a classmate of his at SVHS, class of 1964; I offer my condolences to your family.

My deepest sympathies to the family and friends of Mr Williams.
I'll always remember him as a kind selfless man as his obituary said... because as he was fighting his own fight against cancer, he sent money to my daughter, who was also fighting against that horrible disease. May God bless his heart and soul and bless his family and friends with comfort and peace.
