KENYATTA WILLIAMS Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Sep. 2, 2016.
Kenyatta Jamal Williams was born on August 14TH 1975 to the union of Jacquline Williams and Robert B. Smith in Detroit Michigan.
Kenyatta was baptized as an infant and has had the Lord's loving arms and Grace around him ever since.

He attended Detroit Public schools for Elementary, Junior and High School. Kenyatta had a love for the game of basketball and was affectionately given the name "Bozo" on the basketball court. He also loved to run and was one of the fastest children in the neighborhood.

Kenyatta started working at the age of 12 years old at Mac's car wash in Detroit Michigan, to help his mom make ends meet. This Job at such an early age sparked a lifetime of work ethic and determination.

Kenyatta had a love for cooking and worked in several restaurants. In 2004 he moved to Phoenix Arizona to be closer to his mother and daughter. Kenatta was preceded in death by his younger sister Karla Tanisha Williams; his Grandmother Julia Williams; Aunts Kaye Francis Taylor and Donna Jean Stewart. And one Uncle, James Rucker.

Kenyatta is survived by his Mother Jacquline Williams; Father Robert B. Smith; Brother Robert (Bodie) Williams; Daughter Jazaniah Karla Tanisha Williams, from his union with Latonya Brown. Four children from his union with Shujuan Jenkins; Kenyatta Jamal Williams Jr.; Baby Alisia Kaye Williams; Ebony Ciera Williams; and Elijah Javante Williams. One niece; Julia Ellen Williams. Two aunts Rochelle Rucker and Henrietta Lee. Kenyatta will also be greatly missed by a host of Cousins, Family. Friends and loved ones.



Come with Me
God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be
So he put his arms around you and said "Come with me"
With tearful eyes, we watched you fade away
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
A beautiful smile at rest,
God broke our hearts to prove
He only tales the best




The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want
He maketh me lie down in green pastures;
He leadeth me besides quiet waters
He restoreth my soul;
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his names sake.
Yea I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I shall fear no evil; for you are with me your rod and thy staff they comfort me.
You preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies
Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever, and ever
- Psalm 23


Kenyatta….
My first born,
I love you with all my heart.
You and I were best friends and we always looked out for each other.
You had my back and I had yours, we had EACH OTHER!!
Through thick and thin we were all we had here in AZ
There was nothing that could keep us apart.
I will never forget your last words to me.
"Momma let me go! I'm ready to go home"
I didn't want to but I accepted your wishes.
So I gave you back to the Lord.
I will continue to LOVE YOU
Now and Forever
Love, Mommy

Oh Brother !!!
You were always the one to say that "without proof you can't judge me"
Well Bro I have the proof that you were something special!!
I love you from the bottom to the Top
Rest Up… You Won
Your Baby Brother, Bodie
