Dr. Williams delivered my daughter. I gratefully appreciate the way he ensured I understood each visit, he knew how to break it down for me. Dr. Williams was also an up beat type of guy, no matter how he was feeling you would never know if he was having a bad day. He always talked about the Ministries which was very uplifting to me. He will be truly missed.

I was deeply shocked and saddened to hear of Dr. Williams' passing. I worked with him at Lakewood General and at St. Clare Hospital as well as working for him in his office for a year. He was an awesome person to work with and for, very caring and funny. He was wonderful to his patients (me being one). He was so very proud of Madison. Everytime I saw him in the community and asked him about Madison he'd get his phone out and show me pictures. I know he was a great dad. I will miss him so very much, will remember him forever and I feel blessed to have known him.

Dr. Williams wasn't just the best doctor ever he was a gift from God. I've never met a person who dedicated his life to other people like he did. How many doctors do you know who would give you their cell phone number? Text me anytime day or night he would say. If it weren't for Dr Williams I would not have my son who is now nine years old. I'm thankful to have had you in my life for over 21 years and I pray you get the golden wings Sir as in my eyes you are the angel of them all... RIP you are missed by us All!!!

Dr. Williams was a wonderful OB/GYN to so many moms. He was my doctor for over 20 years and also my daughter's doctor. He delivered my grandchildren. He was a riot to be around. During my first granddaughter's birth, he flung the umbilical cord on my husband's new shoes. A name hadn't been chosen, so he told everyone that the baby's name was "Ed". Well, the baby was a girl, so the name didn't stick, but his kindness and humor did. Doctor, you will be missed!

My husband and I have gotten to know Dr. Willams over the last 7 months. After finding out that we were expecting our first child in April, we went to 7+ Dr.s Before we found Dr. Williams. He was a pleasure and made this experience joyous and He calmed our fears. Although he will not be there for the birth of our little girl we know he will be there in spirit. He was definitely one of a kind and cannot be replaced.I cried for hours after I found out of his passing. He touched so many lives and will truely be Missed. R.I.P Dr. Williams

Dr. Williams was amazing. He delivered one of my children (my last) and performed my tubal. He also delivered one of my nephews. I remember the first visit. "So, what can I help you with?" Well, I peed on a stick and apparently I'm pregnant. "Okay. Here's what we're gonna do do you. We're going to take some blood, then we're gonna hit it and quit it. We need to see what's up with this baby cause I've got a golf game to get to. Sound good?" I was so relieved to have such a joyful doctor. He breezed into the delivery room, coffee in hand, "okay! Let's get this baby out here before my coffee gets cold. You know what to do." I'll miss him and his smile. I'll never forget him. I hope his family finds comfort that this wonderful man touched so many lives in a positive way.

My heart was so heavy and still is with this news of your passing. I came to you as a teen mom with no idea what to expect. You never once scolded me or gave me a disappointed glance. You eased every fear I had. You delivered all five of my kids and made me laugh thru every delivery. I'm so very glad I'm done having kids, because there isn't any doctor but you that I would want to care for me. The angels are rejoicing for your homecoming. R.i.p you are and will be loved forever in my heart .

Dr. Williams is was an AWESOME guy. He didn't treat me like a patient,but as a friend. He didn't scrolled me when I first came to him in 1999, 17 and pregnant like previous doctors. I will truly miss you. You delivered four of my angels. You have a spot deep in my heart that will be there forever and never forgotten. You have completed my family when you delivered my twin boys. Now God should be grateful to have someone amazing like you standing by his side. I love you and miss you. RIP my friend.

One of my favorite memories of Dr. Williams was sitting in the chair very pregnant he came in sat on his stool and asked "what can I do for you?" I replied with "get this kid out of me!" He took amazing care of me while I was pregnant and my very cute yet stubborn son decided to wait until the day after Dr. Williams left for a golf thing in Florida to make his appearance! Some of you may know or not but Dr. Williams was a huge fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers and he went to their last SuperBowl appearance in Dallas. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him my thoughts go out to his family in their time of need!

Ed...words can not express the shock and sadness we feel. Just knowing you lived right across the street, despite your hectic schedule, provided us both a mutual security. We THANK YOU for the "legacy of life" (2 children and 3 grandchildren) you have given our family and countless other families. The unforgettable memories you have left us over the past 28 years will forever remain fondly in our hearts. We will genuinely miss our "Dr. Eddie".
