Wallace W. Williams III

He was a great inspirational figure!! I was blessed to have him as principal for my four years at John R Rogers. He lead with compassion and understanding, always had a story to tell to drive home his point. He left his mark on anyone he met. He will be missed but never forgotten. God bless to his children and family.

One of the things I remember most... his eyes. His eyes were intense but when he was relaxed, they were also bright. To Jeremy...

He was my basketball coach in the 80´s and led our girls1982 basketball team to league champs and CIF Champs. Later on in life we became friends and he was someone I could confide in. Many times crying I would knock on his door "Mr Williams do you have a minute?" Of course, we´d sit outside his front yard and talk for hours. Sharing stories and struggles I felt better talking to him. I would stop by and visit during Thanksgiving and Christmas too until I moved away, my sister Rozanne was...
