Michael Williams Obituary

XENIA — It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Michael (Mike) Williams of Xenia, Ohio. God called him home Dec. 9, 2024 at Hospice of Dayton at the age of 70 years. He was born July 23, 1954 in Dayton, Ohio. He is survived by his wife of 44 years Twila (White) Williams, three sisters, Betty Sears of Xenia, Patricia Amandio of Kettering, and Connie (Dave) Faul of Xenia; four children, his daughter Jerri (Dan) Sabrowski of Xenia; sons Michael (Stacey) Williams of Wilmington, Dillon Williams of Fairborn, and Nick (Kali) Williams of Piqua. Mike is also survived by nine grandchildren, Daniel, Kayla, Darren, Brook, Krissa, Michael, Allen, Everleigh, and Salem (Sissy), and two great grandchildren, Brexley and Bentley. He was preceded in death by his parents Herman and Opal Williams, brothers Jerry Williams, Larry (Mick) Williams, and a sister Kathleen Carolus, and two sons, Joshua and Matthew Williams. Mike was a barber for 43 years. He worked in Dayton at Jesse's Barber Shop for several years, owned his own shop in Beavercreek called the Barbery, and retired from the Xenia Plaza Barber Shop in 2024 where he co-owned with Joe Metzer. Mike loved drag racing at KilKare and old cars. He lived riding motorcycles and being with friends and family. He loved his two dogs Hannah (St. Bernard) and Remi (aka Booger as he called her), a shepherd. She was his constant sidekick. He couldn't go anywhere without her. He will be greatly loved and missed by his family and friends. He always loved to laugh and have a good time. You always knew when Mike was around. There will be a celebration of his life on May 17, 2025 at The Eagles in Xenia between 2-6 p.m. and a private service at a later date.

I just always enjoyed getting haircut from Mike or Joe. Mike had a wonderful sense of humor and always seemed to be interested in what I had to say
