William Larry “Bo” Williams, Jr. was born February 9, 1974 to Larry Williams and Carolyn Criswell Williams Landers. He passed away on Saturday, March 9, 2024.
Bo is preceded in death by his wife of 25 years, Tonya Williams and mother, Carolyn Landers.
He is survived by his only daughter, Shelby Williams, and her long-term boyfriend, George Hutchings; brother, Brewer Williams and wife, Cathy; nephews, Bailey Williams, and Hayden Williams and wife, Sarah; mother and father-in-law, Toni and Travis Camp; and father, Larry Williams.
Bo worked at Ark-La-Tex Communications for over 30 years and was loved by all of his customers because of the pride he took in his work. He had recently started his own fiber optic business so that he could continue taking care of customers and giving them the highest quality service possible.
The best thing about Bo was the way he loved. Bo loved his people fiercely, and he was always good about letting them know that. He loved his lunch dates with Shelby. He enjoyed having his friends over to watch football or just grill for everyone and hang out. He loved the beach and could spend days at a time just sitting in the sand with Tonya. He loved his prize mustang and would challenge anyone to a race. He loved to show it off, as long as you followed his strict no touching rule.
Honoring Bo as pallbearers are Brewer, Bailey and Hayden Williams, George Hutchings, Tony Lewing, Chasen Swan, and Dustin Ruso.
