Curtis Williams Obituary

Visit the Chancellor Funeral Home & Garden of Memories - Florence website to view the full obituary.

Curtis Duley Williams, lovingly known as “SLOW,” passed away on August 21, 2025, at the age of 46. He was born on April 17, 1979, and was a lifelong resident of Pearl, Mississippi. 

Curtis was a devoted father, a beloved brother, and a cherished friend. He will be remembered for his vibrant smile, his big heart, strong spirit, and the love he shared with his family and friends. 

He was preceded in death by his mother, Martha E. Brady; his father, Julius Duley Williams Jr.; his sister, Jenny Williams; and his brother, Rusty Williams. Curtis leaves behind his greatest treasures—his children: Crystal Williams, Christian Williams, Cayd Williams, and Carley Williams. He is also survived by his brother, Roger Williams (Cole); sister Pam Dement Smith, his cousin, Bubba Williams (Rachael), who was like a brother; and his niece, Nicole Williams, who was like a daughter. His memory will also live on through the many other relatives and friends who loved him dearly.

 Curtis’s life was filled with love, and laughter, and though his time on earth was too short, his legacy will remain forever in the hearts of those who knew him.

 A memorial service honoring Curtis’s life will be held on Saturday, September 6th, 2025, from 12:00–2:00 p.m. at The Pointe in Brandon, Mississippi. In lieu of flowers, please send contributions to Chancellor Funeral Home, Florence, MS, to assist his children with his final expenses.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
