Brian Williams Obituary

Brian Patrick Williams, 63 died Friday 4/30/21. He was a native of Cape Charles and a resident of Poquoson for many years. He was a big guy with a big heart. As tough as he was his love for his family was enormous. He loved his Harleys along with the freedom of the road. He passionately loved to read, and all of the wisdom he pulled from those books over the years he tried to instill into his children. He was a craftsman and always had projects to tinker on. His two treasures in life were his grandchildren, Koston and Emily. Which he always had surprise toys and treats for when they would come and visit. We will forever miss and love him.

He is survived by his wife, Cathy Williams, his son, Brian Williams, his brothers Chris Williams and family, Lenny Williams and family, his two grandchildren Koston Williams and Emily Williams, Uncle Buddy Moore and family, and very close friend Ashley Tunno.

He is preceded in death by his son Michael Williams, his parents Joanne Williams and Lynwood Williams and brother Johnny Williams.

Family and friends are invited to a Celebration of Life for both Michael and Pat on Saturday May 8 from 1-4 at the family home, 197 Ridge Road, Poquoson. Arrangements and heartfelt guidance through Claytor Rollins Funeral Home. Online condolences to claytorrollins.com.
