To the family. We are so sad to hear of his passing. Papa J, as we affectionately called him, was such a wonderful
Man. He was like a dad and granddad to us. He loved his family and his church but most of all loved The Lord. Although he is no longer physically with us there are so many memories we will hold on to for the rest of our lives. We love you and wish you peace!

MR JC was a security guard where I worked, He was the sweetest man and always had a smile on his face. He always made sure we got to our cars safely at night. He will be greatly missed by the Aetna staff.

I was very saddened to hear about the passing of Mr. Williams. He was such a joy to see at the end of our work day. He always had a pleasant smile and kind word to say. If he was not at work it was noticed. Seeing Mr. Williams pull up in his truck always was a clue are work day was almost done. He will be greatly missed at AETNA.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

JC always had a kind word and a warm smile to share at the end of a long work day. It is my belief that most of the individuals in our building looked forward to an opportunity to interact with JC at the end of the day. He will truly be missed.

JC was the security guard at our office for many, many years. He was the kindest, sweetest man I have ever known. I'll miss his stories, his jokes and miss seeing his face every night when I leave work. My deepest sympathy for his family during this time of loss. God Bless.

JC was always there with a smile at the front door of the Aetna building telling everyone good night and making small talk. I know he knows he was loved and respected by everyone that walked in and out the door. That door will not be the same and he will truly be missed.

I came to know JC over the past few years, working in the New Albany office building where he was the evening security. He was always smiling, and always had a positive word. He became a fixture of our lives, and many times was the bright spot of the workday. He will be sorely missed.
